PLAY GAMES IN FACEBOOK MESSENGER WITHOUT INSTALLING NEW APPS
Facebook is launching Instant Games, a gaming platform that works inside Facebook Messenger and on the Facebook News Feed.
The HTML5, cross-platform service allows games to be launched without the need to install new apps. Seventeen games are available at launch from companies like Bandai Namco, Konami, Taito, King, and more.
Instant Games is accessed through a controller icon in both News Feed and Messenger and "allows people to easily discover, share, and play games." Scores, leaderboards, and chats can all be accessed through Messenger, and a bookmark for Instant Games is now part of Facebook.
The Facebook bookmark lets users "view and instantly replay all their favorite titles."
