You may soon be able to play games over Facebook Messenger.

Facebook has confirmed that it’s speaking with developers about creating games that work within Messenger and live inside of its app store.

Facebook’s plans for games, however, are still at an early stage, but it is being touted as an interesting idea.

Facebook began allowing third parties to tap into Messenger back in March, but the partners so far have largely been about adding new images – be it GIFs, stickers, or drawings – into chats.

The Information reports that games are being viewed as a way to get more engagement and more revenue, as traction apparently hasn’t been great for the initial round of apps.
