Zoom adds video game feature

The online video conferencing application company Zoom has added a new feature that allows users to play video games with their friends and co-workers directly through the video conferencing application via the Internet.


The company indicated that users can find games such as “Live Game Night Poker” and “Cout and Heads App” in the Zoom app store known as Zoom App Market Place. These games can be accessed and played while participating in the meeting using the Zoom app.

And the website Cnet.com, which specializes in technology issues, indicated that the “Live Game Night Poker” game allows up to 10 people to play together directly, according to the computer game company Flow Play, which participated in Zoom in launching the game. Zoom users can also find Heads Up, which allows users to ask questions with multiple answers.


The gaming feature comes along with Zoom Apps, which allows the inclusion of external applications in the “Zoom Meetings” application, while the “Zoom Events” feature allows the creation of broader virtual events for users.


It is noteworthy that Zoom is the latest company to enter the mobile games sector, as Netflix intends to broadcast movies online, to expand in the field of video games in the future.
