Google has just launched gameplay recording for Android in inclusion to an update to their Play Game Apps.
The American multinational tech company is now introducing new features on its Google Play Games. One of the major updates include the new ability to record and upload the Android user's gameplay shots directly to YouTube Gaming app.
Formerly, it can be remembered that Google already added features to YouTube Gaming app that also offer livestreaming to players. The update for Play Games however is much different from the latter for it offers universalism and more content for YouTube.
The latest update is said to offer a new experience in terms of mobile game livestreaming. A lot of audiences will be captured because of its accessibility and easy feel. Using an Android device, any player can pick a game and hit the record button to automatically start the video recording.
Any user can also use the device's microphone and front camera to record in a picture-in-picture view of the player's reaction in the game.
After recording the game footage, Google Play Games will then help the user to upload the video on YouTube. With the provision of some editing features, players can perform simple editing to their videos before uploading it to YouTube.
Duncan Curtis also stated that the new feature will certainly accommodate the increasing number of active-users subscribing in Google Play.
"Google Play reaches more than a billion 30-day active users. But that's not just some number - it's also an unprecedented amount of players," said by the Google Play Games product manager to GamesBeat.
Curtis also added that for every four Android users, three of them are actually playing mobile games.
As of now, the livestreaming feature of Google Play Games will be available only in the US and UK. For iOS users and for those subscribers in other parts of the world, Google is still planning how and when to launch the said update.
