Al Jazeera
Twitch said the transgender, bisexual, Black and disabled tags – labels which gamers can add to their videos – will give a more inclusive experience to its 30 million daily users.
The world’s largest game streaming service Twitch said on Wednesday that players will be able to add a transgender label to their videos – a move the company said would aid inclusion among its 30 million daily gamers. Twitch, which lets users broadcast themselves playing video games, introduced “transgender”, “bisexual”, “Black” and “disabled” among more than 350 new tags – labels that users can add to their videos. “This has been one of the most popular requests we’ve heard, and the simple truth is that we should have done this sooner,” Amazon-owned Twitch said in a blog last week.
