Top YouTube Creators for Marketing Your RTS Game

A curated list of YouTube channels actively covering RTS games, for indie developers planning launch outreach.

Quick answer

RTS coverage on YouTube is dominated by veterans of StarCraft, Age of Empires, and Command & Conquer: a small group of specialist channels with older, knowledgeable audiences. The genre is less trendy than it was, but the existing communities are loyal and active.

RTS is a genre with a clear ceiling on YouTube. The era of RTS dominance is past, and audiences are smaller than they were a decade ago. But the creators still covering RTS are doing so because they love the genre, and their audiences are committed. Indie RTS games that succeed here tend to hit one of two angles: a nostalgic tribute to a classic (clear influences, shared mechanics) or a genuine genre innovation (new commander structure, novel resource systems, different scale of engagement). Either way, that angle needs to be stated clearly in the pitch, because the creators in this space are looking for specific reasons to cover yet another RTS.
