Welcome to the OTK Network Newsletter
We are getting close to the end of the year, but that doesn't mean we are slowing down any time soon. In the past month, we hosted a VALORANT Tournament featuring some of the biggest creators in the space, our Wild West Ranch finally happened, and the first ever OTK Video Games Awards went incredibly well, with Mad Mushroom showcasing their first title.
The Competition is Heating Up
Our first ever OTK VALORANT Invitational hosted by Emiru, Kyedae, and 39daph was a MASSIVE success.
We teamed up with Riot Games once again to host a creator tournament, this time for VALORANT. We wanted to create an event that oozes style and showcased the OTK brand identity in an organic way. Our creative team had a fun time taking the core VALORANT style and putting their own spin on it to create some of their most impressive assets to date.
The main stream had a Peak CCV of 161,394 viewers with an average CCV of 117,360. In addition to the successful broadcast, we saw an aggregate viewership of over 1,000,000 between competitors' livestreams and Youtube content. The brand power of OTK to create residual content for creators from our events keeps being proven from event to event. Not only do we strive to develop engaging content for ourselves but also for the creators who participate in our shows and events.
The Wildest Content in the West
After over a year of planning and schedule changes, we finally made Wild West Ranch happen. Wild West Ranch is a one-of-a-kind event where 12 streamers live out their Wild West dreams on a ranch in Texas.
Over the course of three days, OTK and friends hosted over 11 different themed streams across 10 channels ranging from Horseback riding, to Square dancing. Wild West Ranch was a showcase at how to build an event that provides content opportunities for everyone involved. We took it a step further and had a chat controlled 360 camera livestreamed to the OTK Twitch channel. In between scheduled broadcasts the audience could see what OTK and Friends were up to behind the scenes.
At OTK, we are dedicated to pushing content forward and thinking of new and genuine ways to engage our audiences and make them a part of the content.

Celebrating the Games that Gamers Love
During the summer, we hosted the OTK Games Expo, a show designed to showcase under represented games. We decided to take it one step further and host our own Video Games Award show.
The award show was hosted by Sodapoppin and featured guest stars such as Daniel Clancy , Goldenboy, ExtraEmily, and more. With over 25 categories, we recognized some of the biggest games in 2023 and the indies that surprised us. A driving force behind the OTK VGAs was to give gamers a voice on what were the titles they actually enjoyed playing.
The VGAs also gave a platform to our publisher, Mad Mushroom , as they showcased their first title, Atomic Picnic developed by BitCake Studio , coming out in 2024. During the show they announced a closed-alpha testing phase and gave out keys for everyone to try out the game and give feedback during its development.
