The Community Predictions Extension will go live with the broadcast of The Game Awards at 5:30 pm PT on December 7.
The Game Awards, not to be confused with the illustrious Shacknews Awards, is welcoming an interactive element via live stream.
With the Twitch Extension created for The Game Awards, we are able to tap into that desire by letting viewers at home cast votes alongside other community members in their favorite Twitch channels,” said Brian Petrocelli, product marketing manager at Twitch, in the press release.
The Game Awards cracked eight million viewers in 2016 and, with the growth that live streaming platforms have seen, it’s positioned to do even better this time around.
