Gamers and streamers - a winner is you!
Thursday, October 15, 2015
It’s
you
who makes YouTube the most watched platform for gamers—far and away. Every month gamers watch more than 144 billion minutes of gaming videos and live streams on YouTube. To put it into perspective, that’s like watching Let’s Plays for more than 270,000 years straight 24 hours a day—or beating Final Fantasy VII 1,900,000 times a day!
Today’s updates to YouTube Gaming are the next step in our quest to create the best place for gamers to come together to watch gaming videos, build communities, and live stream. We’ve listened to your feedback since
September
and have been working on some of the most requested new features and improvements.
Mobile Capture: Empowering streams of every shape and size
Every day, games are played while waiting for the bus, riding the subway, or lounging on the couch—but what about live streaming your mobile gameplay? You heard it from us at the Tokyo Game Show and now it’s here to stay. You can now record and live stream mobile gameplay on-the-go directly from Android devices using Mobile Capture on YouTube Gaming. You don’t need any additional hardware or software—just tap Go Live (or your avatar on a phone) in the YouTube Gaming app, turn on your selfie cam and record your commentary with your phone’s microphone.
Narrate and react to your gameplay using the phone’s microphone and a selfie-cam overlay. Entertain and interact with your audience via live chat. Go live and capture all Android games today!
Sponsorships: Making it easy to back your favorite gamers
Support the live streams and videos you love with Fan Funding and Sponsorships, now in beta to a small group of creators. For a monthly payment, sponsors receive extra perks including a live chat badge chosen by the creator and access to exclusive chat sessions. We’ll continuously expand the list of beta channels, so keep your eyes peeled!
Other new and improved features
Here are some of the other requested changes we’ve made to date. Thanks for the feedback and keep it coming!
More easily see when there are live streams for games in your collection
Easier video bookmarking with Watch Later
Improved performance and a redesigned watch page on
gaming.youtube.com
Better search navigation on iOS by remembering your previous searches
Import existing subscriptions anytime from YouTube via Settings
Go live today with the newly updated YouTube Gaming app available on
Google Play
and the
App Store
, for U.S. and U.K.
