YouTube’s Playables section lets users play a selection of games on the platform; here’s how the functionality works.

YouTube deployed Playables in late 2023 as an experimental feature, giving its user base access to select games without the need for a download.

The functionality is accessible on the YouTube app (version 18.33 and up) for Android and iOS users. On desktop, Playables works on the following browsers – Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
