YouTube's 60 FPS Video Update Now Online
After announcing its intentions earlier this year, YouTube's update for 60 FPS videos is online.
You can find an example of a video featuring the 60 FPS footage below. You will need to be watching the video on Chrome in order to turn up the resolution and the frames per second.

Our Take
It's a pretty drastic step up, visually, to watch a video on YouTube in 60 FPS. I personally have never had much of an eye for distinguishing between 1080p and 720p, but the frame rate definitely makes a difference. This is mainly exciting because future videos featuring video games will now be able to offer an experience more indicative of what it actually looks like to play games.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
