It has been revealed this week that the Twitch streaming platform is testing a new feature in the form of ‘Watch Parties’ created to enable streamers to watch movies from Prime Video with viewers who also have a Prime subscription. Travis Shreffler, a content creator and author, has tweeted an email he received from Prime Video, inviting him to test a new feature called Watch Parties.
At the current time the Twitch Watch Parties streaming service is only available via invitation, although Twitch is already hinting that the feature will roll out further afield allowing friends scattered around the world to tune into the same movie simultaneously.
