AdSense for Games

Google have launched a beta of their in-game advertising solution, dubbed “AdSense for games”.

The program makes it easy to display ads in placements the game creator defines, such as before a game, after a level, or when the game is over. The beta is currently only accepting publishers with high traffic levels.

I am not aware of the requirements needed to use adverts within your games, but the examples so far appear to be flash games.

An example of how the in-game advertising will look can be seen in the video below:

YoYo Games have still not released any further news on the in-game advertising they announced they were considering introducing in February of this year.

What do you think?
