[Digital Today reporter Ho-jung Lee (이호정)] G-Star 2026 will create an online showcase on the eve of its opening and expand on- and offline broadcasting cooperation with Chzzk.

The G-Star Organizing Committee said on Wednesday it will air the online showcase, "G-Star Premiere," on the 18th and has selected Chzzk as the official media partner for G-Star 2026.

G-Star Premiere is a program that introduces new titles and exhibit information from major participants through an online live broadcast ahead of G-Star 2026, which opens on the 19th.

Participants in the broadcast include Webzen, Krafton, Team42, Koei Tecmo Games, Capcom, CD Projekt Red, HoYoverse, Joker Studio, Sterry Studio and Everstone.

It will also introduce each participant’s latest game information and previously unreleased videos, as well as the composition of G-Star 2026, on-site visitor information and special stage programs.

The organising committee will select an official media partner for the first time in 3 years and carry out on- and offline collaboration with Chzzk.

Official programmes for "G-Star TV," which operates during the event period, will be streamed exclusively through Chzzk.

The official G-Star stage at BEXCO in Busan will operate as the "Chzzk Stage." On-site programmes will be presented both on the offline stage and through Chzzk live broadcasts.

On-site support for Chzzk streamers will also be expanded. Streamers active on Chzzk will be issued "G-Star influencer passes" and supported so they can cover and broadcast from the venue.

Online broadcast schedules, including G-Star Premiere, and how to apply for influencer passes will be released in stages through the official G-Star website.
