MrBeast's upcoming game show — Beast Games — will be released on December 19 on Prime Video. While anybody with an Amazon Prime subscription will be able to watch the full 10-episode run, viewers looking to get a trial can watch the first episode for free on Twitch on the day of the premiere.

Twitch has officially announced that the first episode of the much-anticipated game show can be streamed on the Amazon-owned platform without any cost for a limited time. The announcement came after MrBeast revealed his big collaboration with Jynxzi during the premiere.

Interested viewers will need to visit the Twitch channel titled BeastGamesonPrime between 12 pm and 3:30 pm (PST) on December 19, 2024, to watch the first episode of Beast Games. The platform has also been encouraging streamers to co-stream the first episode as well, as the VOD of the first episode will be available to watch anytime between the above-mentioned period with viewers able to pause and rewind.

MrBeast has been doing a lot to promote what he has been touting as the biggest game show in history. Moreover, the YouTuber does have the credentials to back up that claim, having shown off several of the supposed 40 or so Guinness World Record plaques that the show has won even before its official release.

With 1,000 participants and a whopping cash prize of $5 million, hype for Beast Games is naturally quite high. Especially with the YouTuber promoting the show to his millions of social media followers with sneak peeks and behind-the-scenes information about the show as the release day draws near.

Recently, MrBeast also organized a FaZe Clan Beast Games challenge on Twitch as well to draw attention to the show.

As an Amazon-owned streaming company, Twitch has also introduced a separate category for the show and has encouraged creators to co-stream the first episode on the day of the premiere. As an added incentive, MrBeast and Jynxzi will be dropping in on random streams in the category and distributing prizes as part of their collaboration.

Any streamer co-streaming with the BeastGamesOnPrime channel would just need to use the Beast Games tag to get featured on the category page and also on the recently announced special "shelf" on the Twitch home page for the game show.
