Facebook Teamed Up With Rockstar Games to Add In-Stream Rewards to GTA Online

Players can earn free in-game cash by watching livestreams

At the Game Developers Conference in March, Facebook revealed its new Games SDK for PC game development. Part of the software-development kit is a feature called in-stream rewards, which allows developers to give viewers free in-game rewards for watching livestreams on Facebook.

Now, popular video game developer Rockstar Games teamed up with Facebook to use this feature. Rockstar recently launched an update called “After Hours” for its popular online multiplayer game, Grand Theft Auto Online. As part of this update, viewers will have the chance to earn free in-game cash in GTA Online by watching select livestreams of the game on the social network.
