Google announced a new feature for Google Stadia, Party Stream, which you can stream directly with your friends. They have also improved the YouTube stream, one of its unique features since it streams directly from Google’s servers.
To stream, you do not require any additional hardware, and quite a few have this feature. However, it still lacks features like camera overlays, but Stadia’s YouTube makes this feature quite accessible. This feature is available to all Stadia players and will roll out to all in the next few days on desktop and mobile web on Android.
How to Stream Google Stadia’s Gameplay with Your Friends
The company officially supports this feature without the need to use a third-party service like YouTube.
- While playing a game, open the Party option.
- At the bottom, you will find the Copy Party Invites link.
- Copy the link, and share it with your friends to invite them.
- That’s it.
This feature seems to stream your gameplay through the Stadia app. You can stream gameplay at Stadia parties with your nine friends (each party stream supports up to 10 players) simultaneously. Not to mention, you can continue to use voice chat in the game with everyone at the party.
The stream will offer to join and leave notifications and allow them to send messages and emoji reactions. On the other hand, Stadia is also working to support 4K video with HDR streaming directly from YouTube. With the recent changes, you can resume Livestream without changing the URL but changing game support.
