Facebook is said to be almost ready to launch a new and dedicated feature for games in the form of gaming portal.
According to Techcruch, the portal will provide new and feature-rich way to promote and felicitate gaming on the site. Facebook is apparently working with a number of game publishers to make this feature go live by as soon as November, according to the source.
If the new gaming feature will be like any other casual gaming sites, then all the Facebook games will be easy to browse and access within the new feature rather than going through different games via their fan page or the Facebook’s games directory, provide better ways of browsing different genres of games, and might also include section to discover new games, top games etc.
So far, the company itself doesn’t develops social games for the site, but it’s a good thing the company keeps coming up with updates and more features to carter to the needs of its users who regularly plays game on the site, which is almost 40% of its user base.
This new feature if launched will follow the recent gaming dashboard launched by the company in their effort to provide an enriched gaming experience to its users.
Apparently the tech site contacted Facebook on the news and Facebook confirmed that they are working on something.
The details are sketchy, but keep your fingers crossed all ye Facebook game addicts.
