Bring the creator
inside the world

  1. 01

    Pick the right creator for the game

    For a big NetEase MMORPG, we needed a creator whose audience takes new MMOs seriously. TheLazyPeon is exactly that. His viewers trust him to test a new game in depth, and they stay for the full video.

  2. 02

    Send the creator into the real world

    TheLazyPeon did more than play the game. He flew to China, trained with a famous kung fu master, and visited the city of Kaifeng in person. This is content a normal sponsored stream could never produce. Viewers saw a creator they trust inside the real world the game is built on.

  3. 03

    Tie it to the global launch livestream

    TheLazyPeon appeared live during the global launch livestream, an event fans and press were already watching. That put the campaign in front of a big audience at the exact moment the game launched.
