Right now, millions of users around the world use the popular streaming video portal owned by Google, YouTube, to watch game trailers and gameplay. This means that gamers are quite used to using this platform, so the search giant now wants to go a step further in this regard.
Who has not ever used YouTube to take a look at the new release of our favorite game saga. It is even quite common to play these videos to see first-hand how to continue in our game if we have been stuck. With this, what we really want to tell you is that the Google streaming platform It is one of the favorites of gamers around the globe for different tasks related to these contents.
That is why the search giant seems to want to go even further into this sector and take YouTube a little further. Hence, the rumor mill has started and states that Google is considering adding playable titles to the aforementioned streaming portal. The technology company itself considers that everything related to games already has a strong presence on the YouTube website, as we mentioned before.
Hence, now they are planning a service that at first is called as playables. It is worth mentioning that at the moment it is something that is being tested internally within the technological giant. This is a leak that has occurred based on an internal email sent to company employees. Thus, everything indicates that the Playables service we are referring to would add games to YouTube.
Soon you will be able to play directly on YouTube
These would be available so that users could play immediately directly from the browser. It should be borne in mind that the available games could also be run through the official applications of mobile devices based on Android and iOS. In fact, we can mention that at this moment this new game system would be with a single title. There is talk of a game called Stack Bounce which is described as entertainment software in which players smash horizontally stacked bricks with a ball.
Obviously the heads of this popular streaming website want to take advantage of the growing trend of gaming today. Hence, they want to get as far in as possible among lovers of these titles so that they can take advantage of them directly from the browser, connected to YouTube.
For those of you who don’t remember, keep in mind that Google recently closed its own gaming platform, stadia. This is a service that the technological giant presented to us in the past year 2019 and in which I had high hopes. However, things did not turn out as the company expected, for different reasons. One of the big problems Stadia ran into was limited support for games. Also, the requirement to always be connected and the high prices of the titles did not help in the least.
But now YouTube’s approach is different, since it is aimed at all kinds of audiences, even those who don’t usually play games but who want to have a while of entertainment in a simple way. At the moment, the technology giant has not revealed specific details about the service, but it will surely be available to everyone soon. It is speculated that the YouTube Premium users they could play ad-free, while the others will have to put up with ads.
