Horror Based Category Horror is such a massive hyper specific genre that only really serves to its own viewer base - and the absolute chokehold indie horror has on the genre is significant - but there’s virtually no way of seeking this out on Twitch.
I would love to see the inclusion of a horror based category, not only for viewers to discovery indie horror games that are nearly impossible to search for, but also a home for anything spooky and horror specific.
This will also help curate horror into a section that those who are squeamish or triggered by horror can avoid.

Altered TCG A category dedicated to the new trading card game Altered TCG. Streaming who are playing Altered TCG IRL, doing remote fights, or booster pack opening streams can use this category, and viewers who are interested in Altered TCG can easily find it on Twitch.

"songbattle.io" Category "songbattle.io" is a music-based tournament that is often played by streamers along with their communities and audience. These streamers have been asking us, the developers, for a category repeatedly, and do revert to "Just Chatting" most of the time.
We have proposed songbattle.io to IGDB, but were rejected due to them not considering it a game by their guidelines. Instead, they proposed we try here, referring to cases such as "Dungeon Alchemist", which is not a game per se, but still used by streamers and their audience.
Thanks for considering!

"PokeMMO" Category PokeMMO is the best Pokemon MMO game out there and deserves it's own category. This 12 year old MMO always has consistent viewers, and twitch partners have to stream under other categories like "Pokemon MMO 3D" making it confusing for viewers. It would be good to have a single spot for fans of the game. Stats: mmostats.com/game/pokemmo

"Mini Painting" or "Miniatures" Should be a Category "Mini Painting" is a distinct and vibrant community on Twitch, but it does not have a logical 'Category' home on twitch. This community is currently divided amongst a handful of existing categories which are each misleading or overly general.
"Mini Painting" streams are easily recognized by an overhead shot of hands painting miniatures for RPGs, Board Games, Tabletop Wargames, or for display. These streams often have a secondary face-cam, and possibly even a third camera for a paint palette. They are a distinct type of content. Typically there are close to 1000 concurrent viewers watching content creators from the Mini…

"Coworking and Study" Category Last year, you all implemented a "coworking" tag for WFH, study, and remote working streams.
All of us in the coworking community really appreciated the tag! It helped users and viewers find streamers to study alongside, especially in a time when everyone was working from home. Even now, a year and a half out from the tag introduction, many users are still working from home, looking for coworking streams to pass the time and find company in.
Unfortunately, the addition of custom tags—while innovative and helpful for many streamers generally—has presented a problem for the coworking community. It's no longer…

Please add a 'Scambaiting' category There are a lot of scambaiters on Twitch and that list keeps growing. It would help scambaiters in getting exposure as well as assist members of the scambaiting community in finding new scambaiters to watch if there were a scambaiting category. This is something that would be quick and easy to implement.

Channel Category: Education Putting this idea through since the last one was marked as complete in 2022 but isn’t actually available to use.
A request to put a new category called “Education” in.
We have great categories like software technology or science, but sometimes we want to educate or run a workshop that doesn’t fall into a specific category listed.
Whether it’s streamed workshops, someone teaching a subject they love and are passionate about, or just a bunch of our educational friends sharing our crafts this could allow for something a bit more interactive that isn’t just “Just Chatting” or “Talk Shows and…

Multiple/Stacking Categories Hey there Twitch loving friendos,
Categories on Twitch are fantastic and one of the major things that helps to connect us with each other. I think we can all agree that categories often help us find a new stream or even pick between which streams we want to watch in that moment. I understand why we have to pick a category when streaming instead of streaming in many or none, but there are some categories that are really hard to connect with others in and others where it's great it exists for the niche audience looking for it but if…

Enhancing Twitch Discoverability with Multi-Categories Enhancing Twitch Discoverability with Multi-Categories
The objective is to improve streamer discoverability on Twitch by allowing streams to be categorized using both a main category and multiple subcategories. This would enable streamers to reach a broader and more targeted audience, enhancing viewer engagement and satisfaction.
Currently, Twitch streamers can only select a single category for their streams, limiting their visibility to viewers interested in that specific category. While tags exist to provide more detail, they have become obsolete and difficult to search, reducing their effectiveness for discoverability. This limitation impacts both niche streamers and viewers seeking specific content, leading to…

Refine the Music category into more specific categories. The Music category has got extremely stacked in the last couple of years. I'd like to suggest creating sub-categories for Music, or more specific Music categories like Music Production, DJ, Radio, Performance, etc...
With Music being a such a broad category at the moment I feel like it's a challenge for people to find the specific kind of Music content they want and it would also help music streamers who specialise in specific areas of the category find their audience a lot easier in what is currently a massively popular (but congested) category.

Twitch category name collision Currently two (or more) games with the exact same name (usually reboots) share the same category in Twitch. And all the cover art, description, tags are taken from only one of the games. This usually means that the other game(s) effectively completely lacks a page on twitch, despite being a completely different game and having unique gameplay. Can something be done about this?

Adding a "Shibari" Category for Safe, Educational Purposes Shibari is an art form and if given the ability to educate and teach others safely, I believe a lot of viewers would enjoy learning about its therapeutic nature and artistic beauty.
I have been practicing shibari as "self-ties" for nearly four years and have, recently, become more public about the therapeutic and artistic nature of shibari and have found that a lot of people are curious and wanting to learn more about Rope. Besides YouTube, there aren't a lot of video platforms that casually speak and or talk about shibari without associating it with bondage and kink. With so…21 votes -
Just Studying The category of studying would be nice addition to categories.
I’ve seen many streamers with Just Chatting while they study something.
I think it would be helpful if there’s Just Studying just like Just Chatting.So viewers who is nice enough to help them or who can share the knowledge of whatever they’re studying can easily find streamers studying on their stream.

Just Dance 2023 & 2024 (and beyond) being named to "Just Dance" Upon the Launch of Just Dance 2023 Edition, they switched to a new engine and that is officially the main Just Dance. If you look at the title screen, the game is just called "Just Dance". 2023 & 2024 are "Song Packs" for the base game. Since they drop song packs every year now, it keeps splitting the viewerbase more and more due to it being marked as separate games. We would like the possibility to merge Just Dance 2023 & 2024 categories and call it "Just Dance" instead. This game is the last in the series and will just…
