Google Play Games beta for PC is still in the testing phase.

Google Play Games beta for PC has now expanded to over 60 new countries. The beta version of the platform, which was first launched in 2022, allows PC gamers access to mobile games on the Google Play store. The expansion comes as part of Google's ongoing effort to expand its gaming offerings and create a more unified gaming experience across different platforms. According to a blog post from Google, the expansion of the Google Play Games beta for PC will allow for cross-platform play between mobile devices and PCs, as well as cloud gaming capabilities for selected countries. The beta version of the platform will also deliver leaderboards, achievements, and cloud saves for a range of popular mobile games.

The expansion is expected to provide a boost to India's rapidly growing gaming market, which is projected to be worth $4.5 billion by 2022. Users must run Windows 10 on a computer with four physical CPU cores, 10GB of free storage on a solid-state drive (SSD), an Intel UHD Graphics 630 GPU or equivalent, and 8GB of RAM in order to utilize Google Play Games on PC. Google Play Games beta for PC is still in the testing phase. It is not yet available in all countries. However, the expansion to over 60 new countries is a promising sign for the future of cross-platform and cloud-based gaming.
