Ludwig's Streamer Games 2026: Dates, Format, Roster and Drama

Khizar Mundia Published 25/07/2026

Ludwig Ahgren recently appeared in Kai Cenat’s Streamer University 2026 as a professor and he has now announced the Streamer Games 2026. Here’s everything about the event, ranging from the streamers on the roster to drama surrounding the CORE boys.

2026 has been a seemingly good year for Ludwig, as he got engaged to his partner Blaire “QTCinderella” and also became the most beloved professor in Streamer University 2026. However, Ludwig’s fans know what he loves most — hosting events. Ludwig is back with Streamer Games 2026, and most of the roster has now been locked down.

What is Ludwig’s Streamer Games?

Streamer Games is an annual event hosted by popular content creator Ludwig Ahgren. The event comprises several streamers, split into teams, competing against each other. The unique element of Streamer Games is that creators don’t compete in video games and instead participate in real-world athletic competitions. This makes Streamer Games different from other streamer events, such as Kai Cenat’s Streamer University, which has creators learning content creation skills.

In Ludwig’s event, teams compete in multiple challenges, and the ones with the most points reach the final challenge. The winning team is then crowned Streamer Games champion, but there is no publicly announced prize pool for the event. Instead, streamers compete for bragging rights and the championship title, instead of a monetary incentive.

Streamer Games was inaugurated in 2024, with several top streamers, including Rani “StableRonaldo” Netz, Joseph “Mang0” Marquez, Brittany “Cinna” Lynn Watts, and others participating. The maiden event had 32 participants, which was increased to 40 in 2025. The second year of the event saw StableRonaldo and Cinna return, alongside Nick “Lacy” Fosco, Jason “JasonTheWeen” Nguyen, Maya Higa, Emily “Emiru” Schunk, and others. The 2026 roster also comprises 40 total participants, and several streamers will return.

When and where will Streamer Games 2026 be hosted?

Sponsored by Red Bull, Streamer Games 2026 is a two-day event, which will be hosted at the Allyson Felix Field at Katherine B. Loker Track Stadium at USC in Los Angeles, California. The event will start at 12 PM PT on August 1 and August 2, and fans will be able to watch on Twitch or in-person.

Why CORE boys almost missed Streamer Games 2026

StableRonaldo and JasonTheWeen have both participated in Streamer Games 2025, with Ron having even competed in the inaugural 2024 event. However, StableRonaldo discussed attending Streamer Games with Jynxzi, stating that he wasn’t sure if he and Jason would be able to attend, but he’s “gonna figure it out.” Jason and Ludwig also talked about the situation in a recent stream, with the CORE streamer stating that he and Ron wouldn’t be able to attend the event because of business commitments.

Ron was also part of the stream, and Ludwig was begging the streamer to come, as he wanted the CORE boys there. StableRonaldo told Ludwig he wants to be there, and the Streamer Games host told him to make it or “never talk to me again.” Some time later, both Ron and Jason confirmed that they’ll go to Streamer Games. Jason explained in a stream that they had to travel out of the country for a sponsor, which is why the CORE boys couldn’t initially confirm their attendance when the event’s days were announced.
