Google’s Stadia game streaming service has been rolling out new features at a steady pace. One of the newest features is the ability to stream stadia gameplay to YouTube, allowing you to share your current gaming session in real-time on the web and allowing others to join in on the fun.
While Stadia’s YouTube streaming feature will eventually be available for all games, the feature is currently limited to Stadia gameplay through a browser.
