Facebook Introduced New Tools for PC Game Developers

The social network's Games SDK now includes a livestreaming API and more

Facebook released its new Games SDK for PC games at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, saying that it is aimed at helping developers keep players engaged.

The software-development kit includes a new livestreaming application-programming interface, which allows developers to add Facebook livestreaming functionality to their PC games. Once this feature is introduced in a game, players will be able to livestream to a Facebook profile, page or group without purchasing additional hardware or installing additional programs.
