• How do I set a game up correctly on YouTube and Twitch?

  Your game needs to be set up BEFORE content creators can livestream it. 

  YouTube - add your game to www.wikipedia.org with a DVD-style packshot image. YouTube uses this for populating the game description that shows underneath video content.

  Twitch - you need to set up your game on IGDB in order to get a Twitch category. Go to IGDB, click on "Games" and then "Add Game". Here you fill out all of the information about your game and also upload the Game Cover. As soon as you save it, Twitch will add the category for the game in, which usually takes up to 2 weeks. Once it has been added in, you can link the Twitch category to your game in the system. 
  
  Please note: If you don't have a Twitch category we may not find any coverage that's made on Twitch. Full details can be found here.

• I don’t want people requesting one of my games. Can I disable requests?

  You can edit and manage all your listings, including disabling requests, adding game platforms, pre-approving channels, etc.

  If you don’t have an account and you see a game listed with something wrong, or requests shouldn’t be enabled, talk to whichever of your colleagues at the publisher, developer or agency who manages the listing. If you cannot identify who that is, contact us for assistance.
