A Premium Gaming Experience by Google


Get ready to level up your YouTube experience! The video giant is unleashing the gaming frenzy with its brand-new feature, “Playables,” exclusively for YouTube Premium users. It’s not just a tease—it’s game on for Android, iOS, and Web users.

Imagine diving into a treasure trove of 37 arcade-themed mini-games, all bundled up in the heart of your YouTube app. And guess what? It won’t cost you a dime (at least for now)! We’re talking action-packed adventures with Angry Birds Showdown and Cannon Balls 3D, brain-bending puzzles like Daily Crossword and Brain Out, and the classic thrill of card games with Daily Solitaire and Gin Rummy.

Did you catch the memo? YouTube Premium members got the VIP treatment last week when they were tipped off about the gaming extravaganza, YouTube Playables, brought to you by Google. To join the gaming revolution, Premium users just need to opt-in, head to the Explore Tab, and voila! The gaming universe is at your fingertips—no downloads required.

Wondering how to unlock this gaming magic? It’s as easy as launching your YouTube app on Android or iOS or cruising to the YouTube website on the Web. Spot the Playables option in the Explore menu or swipe down on the homepage to discover the Playables shelf. And don’t forget to flip the switch on the ‘Play games on YouTube’ option in the experimental features page. Pro tip: Find it on the mobile app under your profile symbol, hit “Your Premium benefits,” and tap “Try experimental new features.”

But here’s the scoop: This gaming bonanza is an exclusive treat for YouTube Premium members until March 28, 2024. Will it be the next big thing, a la Google Games? Only time will tell, but for now, dive into the arcade fun and brace yourself for a gaming revolution.
