YouTube Announces A Brand New Event Called YouTube: Game On

YouTube revealed this morning they'll be launching a brand new gaming event later this month as they present YouTube: Game On. This is going to be a special two-hour interactive livestream taking place on August 27th, starting at 1PM PT. The goal of which will be to celebrate all things gaming with a ton of the top-tier talent they have on the platform. Or, to be more specific, those who are more recognized for being on YouTube than on other platforms. Everyone will be playing a variety of what looks to be mostly party titles or games in which you can get a ton of people into one place at once. We have more details from YouTube on the livestream for you here.
