Facebook Gaming is Facebook’s video game and game streaming platform, you could say that Facebook twitch but including access to video games. In August of last year, Facebook launched the Facebook Gaming app for iOS, but removed all available games in order to gain approval from Apple.
In recent hours, according to The Verge, Facebook has launched around the world the web version of Facebook Gaming, Facebook’s streaming video game platform, following the same path as Microsoft, Nvidia’s GeForce, and Amazon Luna.
Apple has received much criticism from Microsoft, Facebook and others for its policy in do not allow apps on iOS that work with a video game subscription. While he relaxed the guidelines by opening the doors to these applications, the change was not enough for these services and they all followed the same path: using web applications.
According to Vivek Sharma, vice president of games at Facebook, at The Verge:
We came to the same conclusion as the others: web apps are currently the only option for streaming cloud games on iOS. As many have pointed out, Apple’s policy of “allowing” cloud gaming on the App Store doesn’t do much.
Apple’s requirement that each cloud game have its own page, go through review, and appear in search listings defeats the purpose of cloud gaming.
These obstacles prevent gamers from discovering new games, playing on multiple devices, and instantly accessing high-quality games in native iOS apps, even for those not using the latest and most expensive devices. .
