EXCO Game Studio has introduced AMP, a new in-game streaming and live interaction layer, as part of its strategic partnership with 500 Casino. The project, launched exclusively with 500 Casino on 29 September 2026, provides live-streaming functionality directly inside most EXCO casino games, enabling a new format for player engagement and real-time audience participation.
AMP In-Game Streaming: Core Features and Functionality
AMP is the inaugural product in the EXCOVERSE ecosystem, offering players the option to become a “Streaming Player” within an in-game streaming lobby. From this layer, any user in an EXCO game can broadcast their session to other players in real time. The viewing audience can watch both gameplay and the streamer’s video feed, as well as interact through a live chat interface—an approach designed to bring elements of social streaming directly inside regulated casino environments.
A pivotal feature of AMP is its live prediction mechanic, structured around slot bonus rounds. When a Streaming Player activates a bonus round, every viewer in the lobby receives a 20-second window to place a permitted “prediction position” on the expected final multiplier of that bonus. Betting closes as the bonus begins, after which viewers see the outcome in real time and positions are settled accordingly. This integration of betting opportunities and communal viewing aims to transform a typically individual bonus moment into a collective, regulated experience.
500 Casino’s Exclusive Launch and Supported Titles
The rollout is exclusive to 500 Casino for launch, covering nearly all EXCO games. Flagship titles with AMP functionality include Ministry of Like, Apex Dregs, Robbin’ Goblins, and VEGASCALINE. 500 Casino confirmed that further expansions to additional games and verticals will follow based on initial performance metrics and player demand. The integration enables any eligible player on 500 Casino’s platform to enter the EXCOVERSE Streaming Lobby and participate as either a streamer or viewer, subject to product rules and jurisdiction-specific regulations.
Streamer Tournament and Promotional Mechanics
To support AMP’s introduction, 500 Casino plans to organise a one-week streamer tournament. The competition uses an in-game leaderboard that ranks Streaming Players not by their own winnings, but by the aggregate winnings of viewers who place prediction positions during the streamer’s sessions. Ranking mechanics reflect both the underlying performance of the streamer and the audience's engagement via the prediction feature. Participation in the tournament is subject to territory restrictions, age requirements, responsible-gaming standards, and the casino’s general terms and conditions.
Why 500 Casino and EXCO See Potential in Live Casino Streaming
EXCO Game Studio’s Chief Commercial Officer Aleksandrina Dimitrova stated:
“A slot bonus can be one of the most exciting moments in a casino session, but traditionally it belongs to one player and disappears in seconds. AMP gives that moment an audience. Together with 500 Casino, we have worked closely to explore how it can become a live, social and measurable experience for players. I’m excited to lead the commercial work behind a new way for players to experience casino.”
Henrik Bergstorm, Head of 500 Casino, commented:
"We are always looking into new ways to make gameplay more social without losing the tension that makes a bonus compelling. AMP gives our audience a new live format to interact, and it matches our brand, concentrated around advanced gaming. It’s a revolutionary product, and we’re very excited!"
Regulatory Considerations and Responsible Gaming Overlay
AMP’s features—live streaming, communal betting on bonuses, and in-game leaderboards—operate within hard jurisdictional and compliance boundaries. All prediction positions placed during streams must follow territory-specific legal frameworks, with 500 Casino emphasising age verification, responsible gaming, and the application of all usual terms and conditions. Both EXCO and 500 Casino indicate AMP has been structured so that operators can maintain oversight and regulatory reporting in all supported markets.
As AMP expands beyond its exclusive launch with 500 Casino, EXCO Game Studio plans to monitor user metrics and feedback to inform next steps. The companies are positioning AMP as a social gaming tool compatible with established frameworks, offering measurable engagement and new monetisation opportunities for regulated online casinos.
