What is Gamer Streaming?
If you’re new to the scene, gamer streaming refers to broadcasting your gaming sessions live on platforms like Twitch, YouTube Gaming, or Facebook Gaming.

The Rise of the Streamers
Gone are the days when a gamer was just a basement-dweller. Thanks to gamer streaming, today's gamers are influencers, entertainers, and communities wrapped in one. The likes of Ninja and Pokimane have not only amassed millions of followers but also turned gaming into a full-fledged career. With the right mix of charisma and skill (and perhaps a dash of controversy), anyone can become the next big thing in the streaming world.
