uyet Inc., which describes itself as an integrated trading company for IP content, and CLIP Inc., a company specializing in clip videos, have begun offering a new promotion package for game companies that uses VTuber gameplay footage and clip videos. The package does not promote games through the casted VTuber's own social media accounts. Instead, it uses SNS accounts dedicated to the game title, so promotion does not depend on the influencer power of the talent. The companies say this addresses a common problem: results often hinge on the fame and fan base of the streamer, and VTubers may struggle to react naturally when held to metrics like concurrent viewers, view counts, purchases, or spending. In the new model, selected VTubers play the game individually and record gameplay, audio, and reactions. CLIP then edits the material into multiple short videos and manages the dedicated SNS accounts. The package targets a range of titles, including new IPs, original games, games using existing anime or manga, reissues and remakes, long-awaited new installments, and overseas games entering Japan. Applications for the beta test of buimee!, the VTuber casting service, opened August 27, 2026.
- Two companies, one headquarters: uyet Inc. is based in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, under president Taiki Kajita. CLIP Inc. shares the Shibuya-ku address, with president Shinji Yamamoto. CLIP describes itself as a company specialized in clip videos and short-form video creation for films, TV programs, anime, entertainment, radio, games, and corporate content.
- uyet's other business lines: uyet runs the "Virtual Products Fair" and the "Machi Superchat Project," and also provides VTuber production, audition support, activity support for VTubers and V-livers, and PR support for companies and local governments.
- Selection uses a talent database: casting draws on a proprietary VTuber talent database held by uyet, weighing commentary experience and character traits, not just fame or follower counts. Auditions such as document screening or interviews may be held for corporate projects.
- Work happens at home: VTubers play and record gameplay screens, audio, and reactions from home, delivering material by a specified deadline. Some projects may use only the talent's voice without showing their appearance. Compensation is set per project, and registration does not guarantee offers.
- Benefits to talent: participants can build track record as game commentators, earn income beyond streaming, merchandise sales, tipping, or conventional corporate projects, and keep their usual channel atmosphere unchanged. Some projects may not be disclosable as track records.
- Timing: the package supports both pre-release anticipation campaigns and immediate post-release gameplay footage. Applications opened Thursday, August 27, 2026 via a Google Forms link.
