How to Stream Games to Facebook Live
Facebook Live isn't just for vlogging and funny cat videos -- it's also becoming a viable Twitch alternative for aspiring video game streamers.The massive social network now allows anyone with a Facebook account to go live via external sources from a PC, meaning you can use your streaming app of choice to create professional-grade broadcasts that instantly get blasted to your hundreds of Facebook friends.
If you're looking to share your gameplay antics directly to your Facebook feed, here's how to get started.
1. Visit Facebook.com/live/create and click Create Live Stream.
5. Click Start Streaming in your streaming app of choice. For this tutorial, I'm using OBS Studio. If you need help setting up your streaming app, click here.
Other Options
Keep in mind that this isn't the only way to go live on Facebook. Blizzard games such asOverwatch and Hearthstone have built-in Facebook Live integration, and Nvidia's GeForce Experience lets you broadcast just about any PC game to the social network with a few clicks.While these options are more convenient, using external sources is the way to go for aspiring pros who want to fine tune the look and feel of their broadcasts with overlays, multiple camera angles and more.
