While PLAYCON has always been a strong supporter of local creators, this year’s Creator Stage is set to offer a game-changing experience, elevating streamers from their booths to a live stage in front of a dedicated audience. The event’s organizers have worked closely with Arkuking, Tyky, and CaptainGecoo to ensure that this stage offers streamers not just visibility, but real opportunities for growth and connection.
A Bold Vision for Local Streamers
Arkuking, known for his thrilling Apex Legends gameplay and his sometimes controversial persona, is excited about the transformation. “I’ve always loved PLAYCON because it gives us local streamers a stage, but this year, we’re not just sitting behind a screen. We’re going big. We’re building a space where creators can really connect with their audience. People have no idea what’s coming.”
Tyky, a leader in the horror game streaming scene and a beloved figure in the Maltese gaming community, shared his enthusiasm: “We wanted to make sure the Creator Stage is more than just a spot to stream from. It’s about creating a moment for local streamers to be seen and appreciated. We’ve got plans that will definitely get people talking—and hopefully, inspire the next wave of creators.”
CaptainGecoo, a variety streamer well-known for offering feedback and advice within the community, believes the Creator Stage will mark a turning point for Malta’s creator ecosystem. “PLAYCON has always supported us, but this year feels different. We’re shaping something for the community that goes beyond just playing games. It’s about building up our local talent, giving them the tools and spotlight they need to grow.”
Limited Spaces, Big Opportunities
The Creator Stage offers incredible potential, but spaces are limited. As a result, creators are urged to up their game and bring their best to the stage if they want to make the cut. While competition for stage time is high, the event remains open to all creators, encouraging full participation throughout PLAYCON.
“We’ve got limited spots on the Creator Stage, so we’re looking for those who are really ready to step up and make their mark,” Arkuking emphasized. “This is a massive opportunity, but it’s not going to be handed out lightly. We want to see what local streamers are truly capable of.”
Even with the limited space on the Creator Stage, the message from Arkuking, Tyky, and CaptainGecoo is clear: PLAYCON 2024 will have something for everyone. Whether or not creators make it onto the stage, they are encouraged to take part in the event’s many activities, connect with fellow streamers, and engage with the wider gaming community.
As Tyky put it, “There’s a place for everyone at PLAYCON. Even if you’re not on the stage, this is your chance to learn, network, and grow as a creator.”
Gratitude for PLAYCON and GMR
The transformation of the Creator Stage wouldn’t have been possible without the support of PLAYCON’s organizers and GMR, the event’s driving force. Arkuking, Tyky, and CaptainGecoo are quick to acknowledge the hard work and open-minded approach that helped bring their vision to life.
“We couldn’t have done this without PLAYCON and GMR being so open-minded,” Arkuking shared. “They’ve been working incredibly hard to make this happen, and we’re thankful for the trust they’ve put in us to lead this. It’s not every day you get the chance to create something this big.”
Tyky added, “Working with PLAYCON’s organizers has been an amazing experience. They’ve given us the freedom to bring our ideas to life, and I really believe it’s going to be something creators here will never forget.”
CaptainGecoo agreed: “The feedback we’ve been gathering from the community over the years has really shaped this. We’re thankful to GMR for believing in us and providing this platform. It’s going to be a space where streamers can share experiences, learn from each other, and hopefully take their content to the next level.”
Unmissable for Creators
With Arkuking, Tyky, and CaptainGecoo at the helm, the Creator Stage is set to be one of PLAYCON 2024’s standout features. Local streamers who are ready to take their content to the next level will find the platform they’ve been waiting for, though they’ll need to bring their A-game to secure one of the coveted spots.
“It’s not just about us up there on stage,” Arkuking said. “We’re creating a space for all creators. Whether you’re just starting out or already established, this stage is a chance to be seen by a bigger audience.”
CaptainGecoo summed it up: “We’re here to make sure everyone who steps onto that stage leaves with something valuable—whether it’s exposure, connections, or just a newfound confidence.
Conclusion
PLAYCON 2024 is fast approaching, and the Creator Stage is set to be one of the event’s most exciting segments. With limited spots and high expectations, this year’s edition will push local streamers to showcase their best work. Whether you’re on stage or participating from the floor, PLAYCON 2024 promises to be a defining moment for Malta’s gaming and streaming community.
