The company has 11.3 million users and has driven over a quarter-billion views through shared gameplay clips.
New York City, NY — December 12, 2023 — Allstar.gg, a platform that enables every gamer to become a content creator by seamlessly creating high-quality, shareable videos on any hardware through cloud technology, today announced a $12 million Series A funding round led by Drive Capital. Drive Capital joins previous investors including Mark Cuban, members of the New York Angels, Studio VC, J-Ventures, and Alumni Ventures. The investment will be used to accelerate product development and increase the adoption of its proprietary technology across new partnerships, and additional game and game developers.
Democratizing Creativity and Integrates with Game Discovery Platforms
Traditionally, gaming content creation is monopolized by the top 1% of content creators on major platforms including Twitch, Facebook, and YouTube. Allstar.gg democratizes creativity and integrates with up-and-coming game discovery platforms including TikTok and Discord, making sharing gameplay just as easy as posting a selfie.
Transforming Server-Side Game Data into High-Quality Videos in the Cloud
Allstar.gg works by transforming server-side game data into high-quality videos in the cloud. At the click of a button, gamers can synchronize clips from their gameplay to licensed music, customize video elements like camera angles and in-game assets, and apply advanced 3D filters without any impact to or reliance on their computer’s performance. This approach streamlines the video editing process, enhancing the visual appeal and shareability of gaming content, and converts wide-screen desktop gameplay into vertical-screen mobile video formats without sacrificing quality.
Supporting Popular Games and Aims to Expand its Technology
The predominant share of gaming media consumption is attributed to nine specific video games, and Allstar’s technology currently supports the four titles with the most thriving and long-standing communities including Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, League of Legends, and Fortnite. To date, the company has reached 11.3 million users and powered more than 27 million clips for more than a million unique creators driving over a quarter-billion views. In 2024, Allstar aims to expand its support to popular global games such as Rocket League and PUBG: Battlegrounds.
“Allstar has sparked a paradigm shift in how gamers create content. Nick and his team are addressing a major gap in the gaming landscape as demonstrated by their incredible growth, producing over 3.2 million clips each month for over 550,000 monthly gamers. This is the equivalent to more than one clip per second,” commented Chris Olsen, Co-Founder and Partner Drive Capital, Allstar Board Member.
“Our vision is to seamlessly integrate our technology across all games and game engines, positioning Allstar as the go-to platform for gamers both before and after their gaming sessions. We integrate content creation into the entire gaming experience and make sharing gameplay as common as posting a selfie. With 75% of TikTok users discovering new games through user-generated videos, our focus is on encouraging everyday gamers to create and share their in-game experiences, thereby amplifying game discovery, fostering community engagement, and redefining what it means to be a gaming content creator,” said Nick Cuomo, CEO and Co-Founder of Allstar.

. ## Defend Shady Hill From a Zombie Invasion *Dead Party* takes place in Shady Hill, a seemingly peaceful town where a Halloween night takes a disastrous turn after UFOs appear overhead. The strange event triggers a zombie outbreak, leaving four unlikely heroes to defend the neighborhood against the undead invasion. The game focuses on cooperative survival rather than simply eliminating enemies. Players must search their surroundings for resources, break objects to gather materials, construct barricades, and set traps to slow incoming waves. Different zombie types and map layouts will require teams to adapt their defenses as the invasion progresses. Players must coordinate their actions and make effective use of the resources available if they hope to survive. Music also plays a central role in combat. Characters can use guitars and music-based abilities to push back the undead, giving the game a rock-and-roll twist on the familiar zombie survival formula. ## Four Game Modes Offer Different Survival Challenges *Dead Party* features four distinct game modes, each presenting a different approach to defending against the zombie invasion. - **Stage Equipment:** Use stage equipment and music-powered abilities to hold back the undead. - **Antenna:** Activate generators and unleash radio waves to disrupt the invading forces. - **Skull Cannon:** Collect zombie skulls and use them to destroy UFOs. - **Horde:** Forget about escaping and see how long your team can survive against increasingly dangerous zombie waves. Players can also experience the game's Story Mode, which follows four unique characters. Each hero has individual abilities, strengths, weaknesses, equipment, and a personal storyline, giving players different approaches to the game's challenges. ## Online and Local Co-Op Support Designed around four-player cooperation, *Dead Party* supports both online and local co-op. Friends can coordinate defensive strategies, collect resources, and build barricades together as they attempt to withstand the invasion. The combination of environmental interactions, traps, different enemy types, and music-based combat is intended to keep each encounter unpredictable. Teams will need to balance preparation with quick decisions when their defenses begin to fail. With its Halloween-themed setting and cooperative gameplay, *Dead Party* is aiming to offer a different take on zombie survival when it arrives later this month. The game launches on PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store on October 29, 2026, with console releases expected in the weeks following its debut.
