Gaming Live is a new broadcasting alternative to Twitch coming later this year

Twitch may rule the game-livestreaming landscape, but that’s not stopping a startup from trying to compete.

A new company called Gaming Live revealed itself today. The service plans to offer video livestreaming services for gamers, e-sports associations, and developers. This will put it in direct competition with Twitch as well as other established services like Hitbox.tv and Ustream. Gaming Live has already raised $30,000 in seed funding as part of the Dubai-based Turn8 Accelerator program, which fosters upstart technology companies. It is looking to raise $1 million in an upcoming funding round. The company plans to start demonstrating its platform in action in June, and it will launch some time after that. Livestreaming is a growing industry that is attracting marketing money from gaming brands as well as Hollywood.
