The more, the merrier: Twitch Thursday introduced its new Guest Star feature, which lets creators incorporate guests into their livestreams on the platform.

Creators can invite up to five guests with Twitch accounts, whether those guests are on desktop or mobile, and incorporate audio and video from guests without the need for a third-party application.

Twitch will officially introduce Guest Stars on its Patch Notes episode Thursday (June 30) at noon PT/3 p.m. ET on Twitch.tv.

The feature works with platforms that many creators are already familiar with, such as OBS and Twitch Studio, on desktop and mobile.
