YouTube Playables: How to play games on Google’s video streaming platform

Google now offers an option to play games within its video streaming platform YouTube. Announced in 2023, the YouTube Playables has graduated from the initial testing phase and is now available in select countries as part of an experimental rollout. India is not among the countries where Playables is available, but the country is expected to receive this feature once the general rollout commences.

In the initial testing phase, Google offered 30 games as part of the YouTube Playables. Now, the catalogue has grown to over 75 games. For context, Google had a gaming project called GameSnacks, which was a dedicated site for online games that has eventually led to YouTube announcing Playables.
