Methods, systems, and media for coordinating multiplayer game sessions

A system for coordinating multiplayer game sessions, the system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a hardware processor that, when executing computer executable instructions stored in the memory, is configured to:
• determine that a first user associated with a first user device is viewing game content created by a second user associated with a second user device;
• in response to determining that the first user is viewing the game content created by the second user, determine whether the first user satisfies criteria for joining a multiplayer game session with the second user;
• in response to determining that the first user satisfies criteria for joining the multiplayer game session with the second user, cause a selectable input element to join a queue of players to participate in the multiplayer game session with the second user to be presented on the first user device;
• in response to determining that the selectable input element to join the queue of players has been selected on the first user device, add the first user to a position of the queue of players;
• in response to determining that the first user can participate in the multiplayer games session based on the position within the queue of players, cause an invitation to join the multiplayer game session to be presented on the first user device;
• in response to determining that the invitation to join the multiplayer game session has been accepted on the first user device, cause the first user to be added to the multiplayer game session;
• cause the multiplayer game session to begin on the first user device, wherein the multiplayer game session includes at least the first user and the second user;
• and
• in response to determining that the multiplayer game session has ended, remove the first user from the multiplayer game session.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for coordinating multiplayer game sessions, the method comprising:

• determining that a first user associated with a first user device is viewing game content created by a second user associated with a second user device;
• in response to determining that the first user is viewing the game content created by the second user, determining whether the first user satisfies criteria for joining a multiplayer game session with the second user;
• in response to determining that the first user satisfies criteria for joining the multiplayer game session with the second user, causing a selectable input element to join a queue of players to participate in the multiplayer game session with the second user to be presented on the first user device;
• in response to determining that the selectable input element to join the queue of players has been selected on the first user device, adding the first user to a position of the queue of players;
• in response to determining that the first user can participate in the multiplayer games session based on the position within the queue of players, causing an invitation to join the multiplayer game session to be presented on the first user device;
• in response to determining that the invitation to join the multiplayer game session has been accepted on the first user device, causing the first user to be added to the multiplayer game session;
• causing the multiplayer game session to begin on the first user device, wherein the multiplayer game session includes at least the first user and the second user;
• and
• in response to determining that the multiplayer game session has ended, removing the first user from the multiplayer game session.
