Twitch is planning to highlight some of its most promising users in a reality show called Stream On.
The Amazon-owned video game streaming service says the show is for participants who are “right on the cusp of making streaming full-time a possibility.”
More concretely, it’s holding auditions for users who have already achieved Partner status — the FAQ discourages applicants who are so inexperienced that they “might not benefit much from participating,” but also those who might be so well-known that they don’t need the exposure:
The selected contestants will compete from home in challenges that Twitch describes as testing out “important streamer skills,” with the audience getting a say in who gets to advance in each round. The grand prize will be $60,000, paid in $5,000 monthly increments.
Stream On is expected to premiere in March.
