Kick Joins GTA RP Trend — Here’s What Partnership With Prodigy Entails

Khizar Mundia Published 04/09/2026

The GTA RP community has been consistently growing, and Kick has just partnered with Prodigy, which displays the livestreaming platform’s interest in the scene. Here’s information about the partnership and why Kick may have entered the GTA RP scene right now.

Kick has been trying to expand its esports base for some time, and its recent partnership with Riot Games has created ample opportunity for the platform. However, gaming remains a major part of Kick’s identity, with GTA RP playing a particularly prominent role in its Grand Theft Auto category. Kick also made it easier for GTA RP streamers to get verified on the platform by fast-tracking their applications. With GTA 6 now set to release on November 19, Kick appears to be positioning itself to capitalize on renewed interest in the game franchise. The platform has now announced a partnership with Prodigy, bringing a new GTA RP experience to Kick ahead of the highly anticipated release.

This is a major announcement, as a leading livestreaming platform is joining the GTA RP community. Kick partnering with Prodigy means the GTA RP viewing experience will be improved due to a direct live integration between the two. Multi-View is another system that has been announced, and it will allow viewers to follow different characters, groups, and events happening in Prodigy’s RP world. Kick already has a popular GTA V category, and Prodigy is featured there frequently, with some of the livestreams getting thousands of views.

This partnership could well make Prodigy more prominent, as Kick’s event page has described Prodigy servers as being “only on Kick”. Prodigy has four servers across North America, Europe, and Brazil. The roleplaying project is smaller compared to others such as NoPixel V, which is officially supported by Rockstar Games, but a Kick partnership can help create a supportive environment for Prodigy. Kick’s biggest win in this Partnership is that there are several Prodigy creators on the platform who have a following and create GTA RP content.

☑️ My analysis: Kick could be preparing the way for GTA 6

GTA 6 is just around the corner, and it’s the most anticipated game of all time. GTA RP has a major creator ecosystem, which can help communities develop viewership before GTA 6 is launched. There is a real possibility the livestreaming platform has partnered with Prodigy to build a larger GTA community and potentially take advantage of the GTA 6 craze ahead of release. Rockstar has acquired Cfx.re in the past, and it is currently supporting NoPixel V by even letting the project be accessible from the Rockstar Games Launcher. This underlines the growing importance of GTA RP, and Twitch has also shown similar interest recently.
