In a bid to offer more to enjoy via the renowned streaming platform, YouTube’s Playables is now gearing up to be a full-fledged service, centering on the mobile and PC experiences getting new games from the platform. In its beta testing phase, Playables now offers various titles for its testers to experience, centering mostly arcade or bite-sized games to enjoy. 

Google’s bid into game streaming has failed with Stadia, but its Playables may be a reintroduction to the experience, similar to what Netflix Games is offering now.

Over the weekend, YouTube debuted the Playables for its paid Premium subscribers to access, which still centers on the beta testing phase of the experience. 

It now brings several new titles for the users to experience, and this is available on both the mobile app platform and the desktop PC experience right on YouTube. 

The good thing with Playables is that it promises that it would not require users to download and install the apps on their devices to enjoy the gameplay. 

These new games add more titles to choose from, expanding more of the Playables library as it starts to enhance more of the experience and features it brings.

Arcade Game Streaming on YouTube with Playables

Like Netflix and Apple Arcade, YouTube’s Playables offers arcade and bite-sized games for its users to enjoy. They only need to access Playables via its dedicated tab on the YouTube app or platform, with titles including Angry Birds Showdown present in the service.

To date, there are 37 arcade games available for Premium subscribers to access. However, it remains unknown if YouTube will release it for Free users soon.

YouTube’s Bid Into Gaming and Streaming

Earlier this year, there were rumors and reports regarding YouTube’s foray into game streaming, which is similar to renowned industry services now. The “Playable” was recently dubbed into the service, and this comes after Stadia’s controversial shutdown before 2023 started, with Google announcing its end and directing subscribers to other gaming platforms. 

Playable is not a Stadia revamp, as its main focus is delivering various arcade games that are small and do not require much of your PC or smartphone’s power to run. 

Last September, it was revealed that the platform would not be a cloud-based game streaming platform but a service running smaller games that would factor gaming into its current offers.

Much like when Netflix released ‘Netflix Games,’ the Playable offers various apps regarded as arcade or mini-games only, but it would not require downloading and installing these titles. 

Now, a new set of games made its way to Playables’ beta testing, offering new titles for gamers to enjoy while testing out the kinks and features of the service, soon making its way for wider access.
