Facebook Messenger's Instant Games now rolling out worldwide

Facebook Messenger's Instant Games feature that was first introduced in November, is now available to all of its billion-plus users across the globe.

There are more than 50 games available in Messenger in certain territories, including titles like Word with Friends, Pac-Man, and 8 Ball Pool. Not just this, the networking giant is also introducing new functionality first announced at its F8 conference, including turn-based gameplay and additional games.

With rich gameplay features, there will be leaderboards and tournaments which will provide a more engaging and customizable gaming experience. Then, there are game bots to help re-engage players by calling out new game options and encouraging competition with updates on the leaderboards.

According to Facebook, Instant Games for Messenger will roll out over the next few weeks worldwide for both iOS and Android.

Facebook Messenger can be downloaded from the App Store for free.
