Did anyone have Family Feud taking over the Las Vegas Strip on their bingo card this year? Because it just happened. MGM Grand now has a glass-walled studio on its casino floor where the game show is streamed live to players worldwide. This isn’t a themed slot or a quick cash-in. It’s the real survey board.
Suzanne Lopez, Chief Operating Officer at Fremantle, said in a statement:
“Our partnership with MGM Resorts and Playtech brings together world-class entertainment, technological innovation, and gaming excellence. For the first time, Family Feud has been integrated into a live dealer environment, powered by actual survey questions from the official Family Feud franchise. This collaboration delivers a truly unique and authentic game show experience.”
American game show, international online casino stage
For decades, Family Feud was a living room ritual. You yelled at the TV, laughed at bad answers and secretly wished you could grab the buzzer yourself. MGM just gave you that chance. Players can now step into the show’s world, answer survey questions, spin for prizes, and feel the rush of prime-time tension under the Vegas lights.
Now for the big question you’ve all been wondering about: Can you play this new game from your couch at a real-money online casino? The answer is both yes and no.
The Family Feud live casino game is indeed with BetMGM Casino, but there’s a catch. For now, it’s streamed from the MGM Grand studio to regulated markets outside the United States. That means players in places like the UK, Ontario, Canada, and Mexico can get in on the action. It’s part of MGM’s “Live from Vegas” partnership with Playtech, which has already brought live blackjack and roulette games to players worldwide.

The setup isn’t just about Family Feud. The same glass studio also streams blackjack, roulette, and baccarat. Anyone walking the casino floor can stop, watch the dealers and see how the whole thing works. That transparency builds curiosity and turns random passersby into future players.
Family Feud is likely just the beginning. If this format takes off, other game shows could follow. Imagine Deal or No Deal briefcases opening on the Strip in real time, or The Price is Right showcase showdown playing out with Vegas glitz. The line between prime-time television and casino-floor entertainment is starting to blur.
