RGG Studio’sLike a Dragon: Infinite Wealthis one of the highly-anticipated games launching this year. The game is only days away from release and RGG Studio has gone all out to promote the game and has been releasing brief videos about the game’s protagonists, features, and more. The studio even launched an ad featuring American comedian and actor Druski.
The studio has also partnered with content creators and streamers to showcase the latest entry in the series and reach a larger audience but one promotional strategy has backfired on the studio. RGG Studio also collaborated with popular Twitch and Kick streamer, xQc to promote the game and is now facing backlash from the fans.

Moreover, it has also been pointed out that the streamer had no idea that the game was turn-based. Fans of the franchise argued that xQc has no appreciation or knowledge of the game and this is somehow killing the hype for the game.
I love yall, but XQC? Who doesn’t play these types of games, and went on record before saying these games are trash? Come on now.I guess a reach to a new type of audience.

Players added that RGG wasted its money going with xQc to promote the game. Fans added that he had never played these games and is just doing it for the money with a playercoiningchoosing xQc,“What an absolutely terrible pick of someone to preview your game.”However, some fans thought otherwise saying that people are getting mad at someone for just playing a game.
Many also added that RGG Studio could not have picked a better person to promote the game and they loved the stream but some also called xQc the“worst influencer.”Gamespot’s Tamoor Hussain also shared a clip onX/Twitterwhere xQc was seen waiting for an enemy to attack him, unaware of the fact that the game is turn-based, adding that it is“very funny.”

xQc has also reacted to the comments on RGG Studio’s official X/Twitter announcement of the collaboration and said that he can’t understand what’s going on and people are just mad at him for playing a game.
It is kind of clear that xQc’s collab with RGG will not help the game much in terms of sales and popularity and his involvement in numerous controversies and questionable statements does not help either. Many also believe that the streamer was not even interested in playing the game.
What are your thoughts about RGG Studio’s collaboration with xQc? Do you think he was a good choice or should RGG have gone with somebody else? Let us know in the comment section below.
