BetMGM launches Hybrid Dealer Roulette 4-Ball Extra Bet through exclusive deal with Inspired

BetMGM has become the first operator in the United States to launch Inspired Entertainment's Hybrid Dealer Roulette 4-Ball Extra Bet, entering a three-month exclusive agreement for the new digital table game.

The release introduces a variant of roulette that incorporates additional betting options and combines a live casino environment with pre-recorded dealer segments and CGI-rendered environments.

The game, part of Inspired’s Hybrid Dealer portfolio, features four extra balls on a secondary inner wheel, allowing players to place side bets on whether the color of the balls matches between the two wheels. Winnings on these side bets can reach up to 500-to-1. Players may access these options through traditional roulette tables, a neighbor bet layout, or a specialized interface that displays trending numbers.

Hybrid Dealer technology delivers gameplay without live-streamed video, using patented software and recorded hosts to simulate a casino atmosphere. The approach removes dependence on live dealer operations while maintaining real-time interaction and visual consistency across sessions. The 4-Ball Extra Bet version is the third installment in the Hybrid Dealer line.

In-game features include social engagement tools such as quick chat and big win leaderboards. These elements are designed to increase user interaction and emulate the communal dynamics of physical casino floors.

Brooks Pierce, President and CEO of Inspired Entertainment, said: "We are excited to partner again with BetMGM to bring the first US deployment of our groundbreaking Hybrid Dealer Roulette 4-Ball Extra Bet. This game exemplifies our commitment to delivering innovative, engaging gaming experiences that captivate players and support our partners' growth in the digital space."

Oliver Bartlett, VP of Gaming, BetMGM, said: “Partnering with Inspired to introduce Hybrid Dealer Roulette 4-Ball Extra Bet marks an important milestone for us in delivering innovative gaming experiences to our players. This game’s immersive visuals and unique betting features will undoubtedly enhance our online casino offering and set a new standard for digital roulette."  

The title is now available through mobile and online platforms. 

The launch builds on the ongoing partnership between BetMGM and Inspired Entertainment. The two companies earlier introduced MGM Bonus City, another Hybrid Dealer title, in New Jersey in October 2023.
