šŸ”‘Ā Request Game Keys Directly

Not all game key opportunities come through PR platforms. Some devs and publishers—especially indie studios—offerĀ application-style formsĀ for creators to request keys directly. It’s not always about pitching via email; sometimes it’s about presenting your info clearly and professionally through their process.

One great example isĀ Crytivo, an indie publisher with a creator program that lets you apply for access. You won’t need to send a full pitch email here—just complete their form and make sure your profiles are in top shape.

If a developer doesn’t use a form and you need to reach out manually, here’s a pitch template I’ve adapted from successful creators:

Subject: Requesting a game key for [Game Name] — LGBTQ+ content creator

Hi [Name/Team/Company],

I’m an LGBTQ+ Twitch streamer and content creator with [X followers on Twitch/YouTube/TikTok]. I came across [Game Name] and would love to feature it in an upcoming stream/video. I think it would resonate really well with my community, and I’d be excited to help give it visibility.

Here are links to my platforms and media kit:

  • Twitch: [your link]
  • TikTok/YouTube: [your links]
  • Media Kit: [link or PDF]

Thanks for considering this—I’d love the opportunity to collaborate with you!

Best,
[Your Name / Username]
