In an attempt to evaluate the functionality of its video streaming platform, YouTube revealed Playables towards the end of last year. It appears that Playables will no longer be available on the platform in a few days. It appears like most of us are unaware about Playables.
The information available on YouTube’s Experiments page indicate that YouTube Playables won’t be available from March 28 onward. If you are thinking that this feature was available to all users then you are wrong since this feature was only available to Premium members on Android, iOS, and the web.
Well, this is not for the first time we are hearing about this end date. It was listed last year as well. It appears like the company is killing off this feature due to its less popularity and engagement. Or perhaps it indicates a scheduled end of an experiment. Nevertheless, YouTube was questioned about whether Playables are disappearing or if this is a sign of a future full-scale comeback. The page will be updated as soon as there is an update.
In any case, Playables is a less ambitious approach to gaming than the now-closed Stadia division of Google. Playables, in contrast to Stadia, concentrated on straightforward games like solitaire, billiards, crossword puzzles, and Angry Birds. Let us see how things modify in future.
