Snapchat is launching multiplayer mobile gaming. Snap Games will be available in the chat section of the Snapchat app, where users can invite others to play with them online.They can also voice or text chat during gameplay. The six debut titles, which include a racing game and battle royale-style shooter (à la Fortnite), will be monetized via opt-in ads that offer player perks. The move follows a recent wave of tech giants (ahem, Google and Apple) getting into gaming to reach young consumers. (THR)
