We have good news if youre a video game streamer, or like watching them. Live streaming video platform Bigo Live is making new inroads in Europe, with a focus on gaming. Those looking to build a following should pay attention.
Bigo Live already has over 400 million users, is one of the worlds fastest-growing live-streaming platforms and a true master of engagement. It offers a system of points, levelling-up and rewards that fits perfectly with gaming content.
As part of this European expansion, Bigo Live teamed up with two of the biggest names in mobile gaming.
From June 28 - July 14, it held a month-long tournament of King of Avalon events, a best-seller in 70 countries with over 100 million downloads globally. Participants were given in-game currency rewards, and streamed gameplay shows were held at 9pm (GMT+2) every evening.
To get the ball rolling with this partnership, Bigo Live enlisted the help of some of the most-watched gaming stars on the platform including Maxim (Bigo Id: 758731816), Evgueny Henry (Bigo Id: 757257308) and Effa (Bigo Id: 757298451).
King of Avalon is a mobile strategy game set in medieval Europe. You build your kingdom, train armies and march them right into the lands of other players. Its exciting stuff.
There has always been a certain cross-cultural appeal to gaming and live streaming; KOA hopes to explore new models of strategy game broadcasting through this cross platform partnership with Bigo Live, says King of Avalons publishing team. (Image credit: Bigo Live) Streamed games for anime fans
Theres more to Bigo Lives big game streaming push too. It has also partnered with the makers of Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac for a series of streaming events running from July to September 2021, in France.
Bigo Live users will receive free in-game items to spice-up play and keep
your viewers interested. Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac already has a strong player versus player (PvP) community, and previous streamed events have attracted massive audiences.
The game, published by Gtarcade, is a mobile RPG based on the popular Saint Seiya manga by Japanese manga artist Masami Kurumada. It has been downloaded over 30 million times worldwide.
Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac brings the classic characters, plot, and atmosphere of the manga to life and offers a complex, strategic turn-based gameplay, With highly competitive and strategic PvP battles, and visually attractive graphics, it is a fantastic option for a streamer who wants to keep the audience engaged.

streamers. Its how you can monetize your videos. Theres also a PK mode where streamers go head-to-head to see which will entertain the audience the most, and daily leaderboards where you can see how your streams compare to those of your rivals.
