Twitch just announced that their digital distribution service has gone live, which means viewers of a stream will now be able to purchase the game they’re watching should they be so inclined. As mentioned in Gameranx’s original report, every single game that’s being livestreamed that is available for sale via Twitch will now include a button for purchasing the game below the stream. When you purchase a game through Twitch, 5% of the revenue will be distributed to the streamer, and 70% will go to the developer, leaving 25% for Twitch.
Twitch is kicking off the service with roughly 50 games, but promises to add more. Here’s the list as it stands:
