I'm creating a chatbot using watson and integrate it into Facebook Messenger or skype. At some point I would like to show a video to the user. I have read that this can be done by using HTML (embedding the video in Facebook Messenger).
Is there also a possibility to show the video in fullscreen (embedding in Facebook Messenger would not be fullscreen)? So the goal is to play the video in fullscreen and after having the video played automatically returning to Facebook Messenger for continuing the chat with the bot.
Edit: I have to specify it more. I thought about providing the user a link to a video file stored locally on the smartphone (or just a preview image of the video the user can click on it). When the user clicks on it a video player opens and plays the video. After the video is finished it returns to the Messenger chatbot.

I created a facebook instant app with a chatbot. The chatbot works fine. The chatbot should launch a facebook instant game. This works fine on mobile phones, but after assigning the game to the page, it is no longer possible to chat with the page on desktop devices. The play button is overlapping the chatbox and you can not send messages. Is it possible to remove the play button?
Instant Games bots have only a play button by default. You can override the default experience by modifying the persistent menu. To enable users to communicate with the bot, specifically look into composer_input_disabled.

How do we play videos from YouTube as a response to google assistant app?
As of now, if I say suppose Talk to Gurudev on google assistant app, it shows some videos, when I click them, they open as pop up on google assistant.
How do we achieve this feature in our app using dialogflow and fulfillments?
You can currently play audio files only in Actions on Google (see here). However, you can add a link to a YouTube video and clicking it will open YouTube and play the video. You can use a BasicCard or Carousel for that.
Not all features of the Google Assistant are available to developers.
