Spintec introduces new Baccarat side bets at G2E Asia
For more than a decade, Spintec has been an active driver of innovation in the electronic table games market. It has established itself as one of the industry’s most celebrated providers, earning prestigious awards across the globe. Most notably, the company has been recognised with the title of Best Table Gaming Solution at the Asia Gaming Awards; a distinction that keeps them motivated to show up with ever better and more attractive products. At this year’s G2E, the focus was therefore on innovation, specifically tailored for the Asian market. For example, their super popular Baccarat game was introduced with no less than eight side bets this year. The existing Lucky 6 was accompanied by Big and Small Lucky 6, Lucky 7, Big and Small Lucky 7, and Super Lucky 7. What is more, their solution also features the latest side bets, recently approved in Macau: Pairs+, Monkey/No monkey, and 4/5/6 cards. They also showed their flagship game Galactic Spin, which has received an extremely interesting upgrade this year. Spintec introduced a release which integrates no less than three roulette games: a classic version, a version with multipliers, and Galactic Spin with free spins. All three are available to the player to choose from, but the choice is rarely simple as they are all extremely immersive and fun. To support this dynamic playing environment, Spintec also premiered their MultiView game platform. It allows players to seamlessly display and participate in up to four different games simultaneously on a single screen, with the option to expand any game to full screen directly from the split view. Dipping in and out of different games has never been so simple and intuitive. A built-in lobby allows players to browse and filter available games by type and choose the one they like best. The MultiView platform currently supports roulette and baccarat, with other games coming soon.As a special mode of operation, the platform also features a fast-switching game functionality, specifically developed for multi-table baccarat. Eye shaped roulette and dice had a debut in Asia at G2E and garnered a lot of attention. It accommodates up to 12 players engaging in three different games simultaneously: roulette, Sic Bo and craps. It delivers an exceptionally rich gameplay through a wide range of betting options. In this special edition it also featured Spintec’s flagship game Galactic Spin and Dragons Jackpot, the amazing three-level progressive jackpot. The visitors at G2E Asia also had an opportunity to experience first-hand what Spintec's dedicated tournament experience can do. Its player-focused design serves a single purpose: to keep players engaged for longer while sustaining the excitement and competitive spirit that tournaments are known for. It features a LED wall showcasing dynamic content for both players and spectators, presenting live information across individual roulette and baccarat games while supporting live, automated, and virtual formats. Game graphics are tailored specially for LED walls, including a reimagined implementation for baccarat. The entire setup was extremely well received at the G2E, as these types of gaming experiences are becoming more and more popular across the globe.

Spintec and Blueprint to disrupt the B3 market with a mechanical roulette
Spintec and Blueprint are extremely excited to introduce a new product developed exclusively for the B3 market at this year’s EAG Expo. This fully certified automated roulette is the first mechanical roulette designed specifically for this category and the first one to successfully enter the UK B3 market with 12 installations. It is built with the same pacing, features, and user experience that players already know from virtual roulette, however it is powered by a real mechanical wheel. The result is a game that feels familiar yet entirely new: immersive, authentic, and engineered for high player satisfaction. The product is based on what players love about virtual roulettes in the B3 and B4 markets:the quick cycles, the intuitive pre-game spinner, and the smooth, predictable flow that keeps players engaged. The authenticity and tactile appeal are added with a physical wheel that supports shorter game cycles, resulting in faster and more engaging roulette experience. At this year’s EAG Expo, Spintec and Blueprint will also introduce Hotspot Roulette — a thrilling version of roulette that can be played instead of the standard game, featuring an impressive range of bet multipliers. While highly engaging for players, the game operates at a lower RTP than standard roulette, making it particularly attractive for operators as well. Nadia Timofeev,Director of Operations at Blueprint Operations, is particularly pleased with the project: “Partnering with Spintec has let us create something genuinely exciting — a product that brings real casino energy into AGCs. We’ve put in the work, listened to the market, and built something that players love and operators are already seeing pay off in revenue and footfall. And this is just the start. The roadmap ahead is packed with even more developments, and I can’t wait for what’s coming next.” Erik Pegan, Product Manager at Spintec, added: “From the beginning, our vision was clear: bring true mechanical gameplay into a market where it had never existed. In the UK B3 sector, players had long experienced virtual roulette, but no one had ever delivered a mechanical alternative that met the same expectations for pace, engagement, and reliability. We took advantage of that gap and created something new and very exciting.” Goran Sovilj, Global Sales Director at Spintec, said:” The UK market is of strategic importance to us. We are proud to have already established a strong presence in the B3 segment and to be steadily expanding into the casino market, with larger ETG installations now operating in Aberdeen and Milton Keynes. Our presence is growing and we are very excited for all the innovations that we will be introducing in the upcoming years.”
