Merging companies Many companies exist on the site under two or more names, with a number of games attributed to each of the various forms of their name. A procedure to flag and combine these disparate developer and publisher listings under a single company name would allow this data to be cleaned up and made more useful.

Guild Wars: REFORGED - Category Merger Guild Wars: REFORGED - Category Merger
The launch of 'Guild Wars: Reforged' is now LIVE and it combines all the games under one umbrella now. Twitch still has all the categories split up and the community has voiced concerns in most Guild Wars streams that it should be all in one now since ArenaNet made this new update and change.
Even looking on the official Guild Wars website, now Reforged, the game now includes everything and is no longer split up. Even looking at Steam, ArenaNet has removed all the other categories and has everything under its new Guild Wars:…

Add certain Bundles as selectable categories Games listed as Bundles on IGDB aren't selectable as Twitch categories, and for things like Gunvolt Striker Pack where you're either playing Gunvolt 1 or Gunvolt 2 that makes sense.
Certain Bundles feel like experiences of their own though. I've been streaming the Game & Watch Gallery series recently and its frustrating that there's no category for it, the games it bundles together are small games, so you're naturally going to be playing around the collection, but Twitch has each individual game selectable rather than the bundle as a whole. I think it would be much better to just have…

Dota 1 Please add Dota 1 as separate category, as presented here:
https://www.igdb.com/games/defense-of-the-ancientsCurrently streamers are forced to use Warcraft III as game even though they are playing strictly Dota.
13 votesHi!
Unfortunately Twitch does not ingest MODs as streaming categories, and from a categorisation point of view that is nonetheless correct for us on IGDB: Dota 1 is indeed a MOD of Warcraft 3.
What we'd recommend is to reach out to Twitch Support directly for the creation of a bespoke category, they are able to do override on certain categories.
Alternatively you may ask here directly for a new category to be created: https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310210-discover?category_id=367945
Hope this helps!

Mobile app or optimize the website for mobile A dedicated IGDB mobile app would be great however I would settle for your website to be better mobile optimized.
13 votesHeya!
We actually used to have apps, but our (IGDB) team is quite small we decided to terminate them as we couldn’t guarantee high quality support for them. We don’t plan to refocus on apps until we can guarantee that seal of quality again.
However we do plan on revisiting and improving our mobile site before then!
Stay tuned :)

Add Clicker / Idle Game as a genre It's a distinct enough style of gameplay that it should be a genre rather than just a keyword.

Minecraft Bedrock edition as a category Hello
I noticed that there are so many Minecraft categories but none from the Minecraft Bedrock edition.
In general, this is my suggestion. An extra category for the Minecraft Bedrock edition. I'm from the Minecraft Bedfrock edition scene and because there is no category for which many of my colleagues stream Minecraft Bedrock edition only on YouTube and not on Twitch. It is even often said that the Minecraft Bedrock edition would not be wanted on Twitch and something like that. And I think something should change so that another community can find its place on Twitch.

Add company logo history Company logos change with time and many of them do drastic changes. Suggestion to be able to upload more than 1 logo as well as date input accompanying logos.
Also have a nice logo picture timeline where each logo has a 'from' and 'to' date associated.12 votes -
Trivia/Other Section Several games have interesting or obscure caveats in terms of their release or their playability, and it's worth mentioning them for the sake of completeness. For example, Donkey Kong Junior is listed as a Gameboy Advance release, which is technically correct, but it was only playable via the e-Reader, which is not obvious. Additionally, Donkey Kong Junior also exists as a playable game within Game and Watch Gallery 3 and 4, which may technically not count as a release but deserves mentioning somewhere. There are several examples of games with unique scenarios like this, and this data doesn't really have…
11 votesHey! This is excellent, we ourselves have been wanting Triva data for a long time. Although this isn’t a high priority data it would offer a lot in terms of general knowledge.
However this is a difficult data to handle, as verifying it can be quite difficult and time consuming. Eventually we will revisit the concept and see what options we can come up with to faciliate this.
Leaving this ticket open if other users have suggestions, such as sources of gaming trivia that could be researched.
Thanks!

Make game recommendations that are personalized Do it by using both:
Content filtering (content-based filtering): a user rates games and/or adds games to their personal library or lists, and then is shown stuff that has similar metadata to the games that that user has rated highly and/or added to their library. For example, games within the same genres, games from the same developers, games released in the same year, etc.
Collaborative filtering (user-library-based filtering): a user rates games and/or adds games to their personal library, and then is shown stuff that other users who highly rated those same games and/or have those same games in their…

Additional Oriental/Asia Regions. [HK], [TW] Noting the [CN] China region as well as [KR] Korea, but it is worth adding that releasing in mainland China is and has been EXCEPTIONALLY difficult for western publishers, which is why most devs have historically opted to release in [HK] Honk Kong or [TW] Taiwan and let those sales be an "in" to the region.
11 votesThis is interesting, so even though TW or HK release are a way to enter the Mainland market, they are actually different? in terms of content and/or release dates?
Sounds like we need to investigate this further.
If you happen to have example of some titles please share them in a comment in here as that would help.Thanks!

Add game-specific controllers Ability to add game-specific controllers/accessories to their page. For example the guitar in guitar hero games, the camera with Eyetoy games, the dance mat for DDR games and so on. Along with the option to set whether the item is mandatory or not.

EAN Integration (bar Codes from retail versions) The EAN on the back of packages are a unique way to identify different versions of games. This could help to find details about a game and revision.

Request for Separate Twitch Categories for osu! Game Modes Hello Twitch Support Team,
I would like to request the addition of separate Twitch categories for the four distinct game modes in osu!. Currently, all modes are grouped under a single osu! category, which makes it difficult for viewers to find content related to the mode they are most interested in.
Reasons for Separate Categories:
1. Each mode has unique gameplay mechanics and communities:
- osu!standard: Classic circle-clicking rhythm gameplay.
- osu!taiko: A drumming-based rhythm game inspired by Taiko no Tatsujin.
- osu!catch: A fruit-catching mode with entirely different mechanics.
- osu!mania: A vertical scrolling rhythm game similar to DDR/StepMania.…

Alternate/Regional Titles subtitle below the Page Title This goes slightly with the request for alternate cover options for titles, it would be helpful if various regional titles displayed beneath the main page titles, rather than a small subtext at the bottom of the page.
Example:
Title: Fatal Frame (NA)
Subtitle: Also known as: 零 (Zero - JP), Project Zero (EU)10 votes -
My "Episodic Type" category is missing (Asleep: Ato 2) I need to bring online a specific category of my game (Asleep) with a new episode.
We're launching Asleep divided by Episodes. The first one "Asleep: Ato 1" was released last year. The second one "Asleep: Ato 2" will be released very soon. We already have both categories in IGDB, but apparently "Asleep: Ato 2" was removed from Twitch categories, just for being an "Extension/Episode" type in IDGB - We can't change "Asleep: Ato 2" for a Main Game type there.
Can someone from Twitch help us with this, I already tried Twitch Support, but there is no topic related…
