Google updates YouTube Gaming with mobile live streaming
If you cast your mind back to the end of last month, you may recall that YouTube announced a brand new feature it was gearing up to bring to its mobile application, which would enable owners of Android-powered smartphones and tablets to live stream games to the service. However, at the time, no official release date was given. The new functionality was simply introduced as “coming soon”, but now it’s on its way and rolling out to users all around the world.
Here’s what YouTube had to say:
“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.”
To install the upgrade, simply open up the Play Store, toggle the hamburger menu by swiping in from the left-hand side of the screen, select ‘My Apps’ and click on ‘YouTube Gaming’, then hit the update button. Alternatively, you can hit the link below to initiate the download on your smartphone from the Web.
