Setting Up Your Twitch Account

  • After you have activated your account, download the Twitch app from the PlayStation Store's Media section. 
  • Before you launch the Twitch app, make sure HDCP is enabled, which protects any copyrighted content you might stream from your console.
  • Once you have launched the Twitch app on your PS5, sign in with your Twitch account and follow the on-screen instructions to link your account.

Enter an eye-catching stream title, which can help draw in viewers, and then click Go Live (Tip: In creating your title, make sure it is humorous or evokes emotions. Adding numbers on the title could also do wonders, also do not forget to mention the game title!).

You can pause or stop your broadcast anytime by pressing the Create button and selecting the Broadcast feature.
