Twitch App Coming to Ouya

We’re wishing good luck to our friends at Ouya on their launch event at GDC tonight at 8pm PT. The Android-based Console was a Kickstarter phenomenon, and they start sending the first batch of consoles to Kickstarter backers starting today.

We’re proud to announce that Twitch will be among a select group of native apps on the Ouya upon launch. That’s right, Ouya will be the first console on the market to include a native Twitch viewing app. Sit back on your couch, fire up your new Ouya, and bring the full Twitch experience into your living room.

You may recall that last summer Microsoft announced the coming availability of a Twitch app for XBOX. We know that has been hotly anticipated by the Twitch community. Unfortunately, we ran into some development snags, but rest assured it is slated for release in May. You will be the first to know!
