Houseparty is a popular social media video streaming app that was bought by Epic Games, the developers of Fortnite, back in 2019. As per an article by TechCrunch, Epic Games has just announced its plans to integrate Houseparty with Fortnite in a bid to popularise the app. Now, Fortnite streamers can live stream games directly onto the Houseparty app. Streamers can use the app to share their gameplay with up to nine people in a Houseparty room. Read on to know more about the Houseparty app and Fortnite livestream.
Fortnite users can now livestream gameplay to Houseparty’s social video app
Houseparty, the social video app acquired by Fortnite maker Epic Games in 2019, has just announced a major new step in terms of integrating these two properties: the company says it will now allow gamers to livestream their Fortnite gameplay directly into Houseparty. The feature works to allow users to share their gameplay with up to nine other friends in a Houseparty room.
The addition follows Houseparty’s launch of a “Fortnite Mode” last November, which added a video chat feature to Fortnite where players could see live feeds from their friends while gaming, powered by Houseparty. Today’s launch is something of a reverse of that, as it lets players stream the game to friends, which is viewable inside Houseparty itself. This allows the users’ friends including those who may not be Fortnite gamers themselves to watch and and interact with the player.
