Elgato Gaming Ships ‘Stream Deck’ the Meme-tastic Livestreaming Tool

Content Creators Can Elevate Their Production Value with Stream Deck, the First Affordable Solution For Professional-Grade Live Broadcasts.

Elgato Gaming announced the release of Stream Deck (you may have seen us cover it on our Facebook page), a professional-studio-grade controller that allows content creators to better manage their live broadcasts. Stream Deck is the first affordable solution that enables creators to elevate the production value of their broadcasts without having to take focus away from audience engagement and quality of the stream.

Instead of having to manually alt+tab out of their game or set up a complicated chain of hotkeys, creators can easily switch scenes, launch media, send tweets, control chat, and configure up to 210 actions using Stream Deck’s simple 15 LCD key setup. The device is now available online at Elgato and Amazon for an MSRP of $149.95.

Stream Deck’s key features:

  • Physical and visual feedback: LCD keys indicate status of an action once complete, even in low light
  • Unlimited customization: choose from hundreds of professionally-created icons or customize and upload your own key icons and layouts
  • Native integrations: choose from a growing number of popular integrations – control Game Capture, OBS, TipeeeStream, Twitch, Twitter and more
  • Simple drag and drop setup: Easily drag and drop actions onto keys in the app; create folders of actions by dragging one action onto another

Accompanying software for Stream Deck is available as a free download from www.elgato.com/gaming/downloads, and Elgato will extend software support through regular, free updates. Stream Deck is a compact USB 2.0, and requires a PC with Windows 10 (64-bit) or a Mac with macOS 10.11 or later.
