Fans react as KICK reveals that Twitch streamer Asmongold will begin streaming on their platform

Well-known streamer Asmongold has decided to grow his reach in digital streaming by becoming part of Kick's Partner Program. Kick announced his addition on June 1, 2025. This move fits with the streamer’s ongoing interest in streaming on multiple platforms.

The American YouTuber's partnership stands out from past deals with big streamers such as xQc and Amouranth. In contrast to their exclusive contracts, the streamer’s deal does not include a binding commitment or a requirement to stick with one platform. This change signals a fresh chapter in the streamer's approach to streaming.

Many fans appreciate that Asmongold is likely branching out to multiple platforms. The YouTuber's reputation for being honest and independent resonates strongly with his audience.

"Honestly it’s always struck me as odd when bigger streamers (without exclusivity contracts) don’t multi stream. More exposure is always good," an X user commented.

"My favorite thing about him is his honesty! Love it!" Another wrote.

Fans who might have missed his streams on a specific platform are now hopeful they can catch him live on the platform they use most.

"Thanks, I was looking for which platforms he would be on," another X user reacted.

"If he really wants to avoid censorship he should stream on @rumblevideo," another said.

"Big move by Asmongold! Love his independent approach. @GavinBrookswin’s insights on platform shifts like this have been clutch—helps put these moves into perspective. Excited to see how this plays out!" One user wrote on X.

Asmongold launches multistreaming era with Kick and beyond

Asmongold plans to start using a multistreaming setup where his live broadcasts will run on several platforms at the same time. Beginning June 2, fans can tune in not just on Twitch but also on Kick.

According to Kick co-founder Bijan Tehrani, there is no exclusive agreement. The streamer is participating in the Partner Program offered by Kick. This program gives creators the freedom to work on other platforms while earning revenue. It lets streamers keep half of any income they make, no matter where else they are active.

“Twitch spent years fighting to trap creators inside their walled garden,” Tehrani said. “Tomorrow, Asmongold, the most watched streamer in the world, begins multistreaming to Kick. No special deal, just Kick Partner Program.”

This strategy connects with the streamer’s recent criticism of Twitch and its restrictive platform rules. He claimed that Twitch streaming is becoming less important.

Tehrani explained that Kick’s approach fosters competition and pushes platforms to rethink how they handle revenue sharing, content rules, and creator freedom. He described the partnership as a vision for what streaming could become—a future that values creator choice and cross-platform opportunities.

Although the streamer has confirmed Kick and Twitch as his current platforms, he has also suggested he might branch out to others like X, earlier known as Twitter, where he has already been in talks with its owner, Elon Musk.
