Evolution just added Connecticut to its US map. The supplier launched Crazy Time in the state this week, marking another step in its American growth plan.
Connecticut becomes the sixth US state where players can access the game. Evolution’s also rolling out three related titles at the same time. The company’s been methodically building its presence across regulated US markets since early 2024.
Jacob Claesson runs Evolution’s North American operations. He called Crazy Time’s arrival in Connecticut “an exciting step” for the company’s US expansion plans. His comments highlighted both the game’s global appeal and Evolution’s commitment to growing its American footprint.
Why This Launch Matters for Evolution
The timing fits Evolution’s recent push across America. Crazy Time first appeared in New Jersey back in early 2024, testing the waters in one of the country’s most established online gambling markets.
Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan followed last year. Each state added credibility to Evolution’s US operations and proved demand existed for their live casino format.
Connecticut’s addition shows steady progress. Evolution isn’t rushing into every state at once. Instead, they’re building out their presence methodically, choosing markets carefully.
The game’s proven popular elsewhere. Claesson mentioned it’s “captivated players across the globe” with its immersive format and high entertainment value. That track record matters when entering new markets. Players already know the brand, which helps adoption rates.
What Games Connecticut Players Get
Crazy Time leads the package. But Evolution didn’t stop there.
Three spin-off games launched alongside it. Crazy Coin Flip, Crazy Pachinko and Red Door Roulette are all now available to Connecticut players. Each builds on Crazy Time’s core format while offering different gameplay mechanics.
This isn’t Evolution’s only recent US move. The supplier opened its first live casino studio in São Paulo, Brazil back in July. That Brazilian expansion shows Evolution’s thinking globally, not just about America.
And they’ve been busy with partnerships too. Evolution extended their deal with PokerStars over the summer. They’re now PokerStars’ only live casino provider across US markets. That’s a significant arrangement for both companies, giving Evolution prominent placement while PokerStars gets exclusive access to their games.
How Evolution’s Building Its US Footprint
The Connecticut launch caps a busy few months. Evolution reported strong Q2 2025 results before pushing forward with several deals.
Gaming Arts partnered with them last month. That collaboration brings Evolution’s online slots to land-based casinos around the US. It’s a different angle than their typical online focus, showing willingness to adapt.
Delaware North brought Evolution back too. The supplier’s games returned to the Betly iCasino platform in West Virginia after being absent for a period. Re-entering a market matters just as much as entering new ones.
These deals paint a picture. Evolution’s not just adding states for their live games. They’re weaving themselves into different parts of America’s gambling infrastructure through multiple channels.
Six states might not sound like much compared to the whole country. But Evolution’s picking markets carefully and building relationships that could matter long-term. Connecticut’s just the latest piece in a larger strategy that’s clearly working.
