Facebook is now inviting Instant Games users to livestream their gaming sessions, Venture Beat reports. Additionally, “Games such as Rovio Entertainment’s Angry Birds will be joining the Instant Games platform next year, along with integrated video chat in multiplayer games starting with Zynga’s Words with Friends,” VB writes. Meanwhile, “Though Facebook doesn’t have specific plans to court broadcasters who are livestreaming on platforms like Twitch, [Facebook’s global director of games partnerships Leo] Olebe says that it’s not a stretch to think that influencers may want to give it a spin to create a social gaming experience with their audience."
