With Grand Theft Auto V consistently being a top game for content creators, Grand Theft Auto VI is sure to be a new hit across streaming platforms. If you’re planning to stream GTA VI but aren’t set up for console streaming, keep reading to learn how you can go live from your XBOX and PlayStation console.
Streaming GTA VI from your PC with a capture card
A capture card sends your PlayStation or XBOX audio and video to your computer and your TV at the same time.
If you want the most customization, streaming from your PC with a capture card is your best choice as it allows you to use all the features of your favorite streaming software, giving you access to overlays like GTA-inspired overlays and widget themes. If you use your capture card with Streamlabs Desktop, you can also access pre-themed styles for a variety of apps available for Streamlabs Desktop including Scene Deck, Caption Studio, Streamer Challenge, Voice Filter, and Cam Pro available with Streamlabs Ultra.
To stream with a capture card:
- Connect your console to your capture card. Note: If you’re connecting a PlayStation console, turn off HDCP in your system settings if they are enabled.
- Connect the capture card to your TV or monitor and PC.
- Add your capture card source in your streaming software, set up your scenes, and go live.
