GTA 6 is fast approaching, but a PC release is still nowhere in sight. For many content creators who only play and share gameplay from a PC, that means a heavy adjustment to their setup if they want to create content around Rockstar's heavily anticipated title. It seems like Elgato and Twitch are all too aware of this, because the two brands have made a bundle that makes new console-tilted gear for live streamers a bit more accessible.
Twitch and Elgato (owned by Corsair) have announced the Elgato X Twitch Streaming Kit, a bundle of an up-to-date capture card, PS5 SSD, and a 10% discount for active Twitch partners and affiliates.
“Twitch is where so many gaming moments become shared experiences,” said Taylor Ward, Senior Director of Ecosystem at Elgato.
“Our role is to make the step between playing on console and creating live content as simple as possible. By working with Twitch to put capture tools and guidance directly in front of creators, we can remove some of that friction and help more people go live when the moment matters.”
Unfortunately, I'm not sure execution of this new bundle has been all that helpful - even for the wealthiest full-time content creators. The only capture card included in the bundle is the (flagship) Elgato Game Capture 4K X, and the only SSD in the bundle is the Corsair MP600 Elite (Corsair's flagship storage device for the PS5).
Fair enough if you're a pro level content creator with plenty of money to spend on this sort of thing, and fair enough if you want to spare no expense to get the best spec of capture card available.
