The recording will be available in either 720p or 480p, and you’ll be able to choose whether or not to use the front-facing camera to record commentary as you play. Once you’re done recording, the app will save the video and upload it to YouTube.

The update will be available to Android users in the United States and the United Kingdom over the next few days, if it’s not available already.
