YouTube Data API video insert/update - setting 'Game title'

The YouTube Data API v3 functions Video.insert and Video.update do not contain an option to set the "Game title" as you can when uploading / updating a video in the web UI:

Game title

This is only available if the category is set to Gaming.

Edit: To clarify, I do not wish to set the Video Title. This input is used to identify the Game that is being played in the uploaded video and is displayed under the video description.

Is there an API endpoint to set this Game title? Or do I have to POST to https://www.youtube.com/metadata_ajax?action_edit_video=1 like the web UI does?

The Youtube Data API does not have this implemented at this time of writing. And nether we are able to Get the game title as well.
