Trending games and popular games are seen while you browse by game. YouTube Gaming also has an inline chat feature along with the ability to video archive games. Viewers can get personalized recommendations of what to watch based on their subscriptions and the games they collect.
You can browse dedicated pages for every game, as well as publisher and gamer channels and explore categories from reviews to let’s plays, machinima, eSports, and more. The app even offers live stream notifications to your device. YouTube recently got 60fps live streaming, especially for those who are streaming games.
