Namco Bandai UK and Yoostar have announced that players of Yoostar 2 can now upload their in-game performances directly to YouTube.

The update brings Yoostar 2 players together with the free Yoostar Playground on Facebook.

Through Yoostar’s social video platform, viewers can access tens of thousands of Yoostar videos on the Yoostar Playground and YouTube without a console game.

“Integrating YouTube into the Yoostar community provides unparalleled reach for users to share their performances with the world. By bringing together the three formerly separate worlds of console gaming, social networking and social video sharing we’ve taken a big step toward realising our vision: to create the world’s first social video gaming network,” said Stephanie Morgan, vice president of social gaming at Yoostar Entertainment Group.

In addition to the YouTube connection, Yoostar Playground on Facebook is adding several frequently requested features during the next two weeks:

– Players will be able to post performances on Facebook user walls

– A new “boost” power up will amplify earned activity points in different scenarios so players can move up the leaderboard faster

– The Store will alert players to fresh downloadable content as soon as it hits the Xbox LIVE and PlayStation networks

– New video tutorials will help players move from beginners to pros on Yoostar 2
