Announcing Twitch Broadcasting in Firefall

Red 5 Studios announced today that they’re enabling Twitch Broadcasting directly in their free-to-play online multiplayer FPS, Firefall.

See here for the official press release and here for the story over on Venturebeat. Joining video game industry heavyweights like EA, Activision and Sony Online Entertainment, Red 5 is the latest game developer to join the ranks of the Twitch community.

Why is in-game Twitch broadcasting such a great move? VenureBeat summed it up nicely:

Many new games will begin shipping with livestremaing features. It makes too much sense. Developers get the exposure, Twitch gets the viewers, and gamers get to show off their gaming skills — everybody wins.

Sign up for the beta today and give it a whirl!
