Gameloft is teasing an update to 'Asphalt 8: Airborne' that brings the Great Wall of China and a new Twitch broadcasting feature.

The biggest update since launch is coming! Discover The Great Wall with your McLaren P1, Ferrari Testarossa or any of the other new dream cars, and share your journey with your friends using the brand new Twitch broadcasting feature!

Gameloft's Asphalt 8: Airborne for iOS will be the first ever mobile game to feature Twitch's live streaming functionality. The company will demonstrate the game's broadcasting capabilities during the week of the Game Developers Conference with a 24-hour live stream event on Twitch.

"This first-ever mobile game integration with Twitch opens the door for gamers to broadcast and share game play experiences like never before," said Baudouin Corman, VP of Publishing for the Americas, Gameloft. "As one of our most popular games, Asphalt 8:
Airborne made perfect sense to integrate the Twitch mobile SDK, and we can't wait to see the excitement it brings to our users."

Beyond broadcasting gameplay to the player's Twitch channel, Asphalt 8: Airborne's Twitch integration unlocks the door to a host of interactive functions. These include the ability to stream your voice and image using your iOS device's microphone and front-facing camera, and to monitor chat from people viewing your stream. Players can also archive their streams and share them on the Web, or discover streams from other Asphalt 8 players from within the app.
