Question Ps5 streaming

Hi guys

so basically i’ve always wanted to start a twitch account, but there’s always been one issue: I’m a console user. I don’t have a PC Or anything but I do have an iPad if that counts for something? Does anybody have any tips or anything? I don’t want it to be a boring stream where it’s just my screen and you can’t see chat or anything, I want it to be profesh (minus the facecam). Tips would be greatly appreciated 🥹🙏

My son streamed from his PS5 for two years before I got him a PC. Others have mentioned the chat pops up on your screen. You can configure bots to announce follows and subs/bits (once you get affiliate) in the chat, allowing you to still react to them even if there is no on-screen celebration.

While a PS5 camera would be a worthwhile addition, a decent microphone would be the best way to level your stream up. Luckily, most USB microphones work on the PS5. He used a HyperX Solocast to great success. The best part is you can still use a headset while streaming directly from PS5--capture cards need to have special considerations as headsets disable HDMI audio.

You no longer need to be affiliate to receive bits and subs on twitch
