Google Launches Google Play Games App

Building on the Google Play Games Services first announced at Google I/O back in May, today Google launched its Google Play Games Android App, a new app for social gaming that brings some of the features of Apple’s Game Center to Android smartphones and tablets. 

Like Game Center, Google Play Games will help gamers find and compete with their friends in multiplayer games, and also includes leaderboards and achievements for any game using the Google Play Game services.

The app also includes Google+ integration to let players post their latest achievements and scores. You can also click on your friends' profiles and see what games they've been playing recently.

The app is available for download on Google Play.
