Many studios do paied promotions with videogame streamers, often targetting by ''category''. Ex : one streamer and his audience heavily skews RPG, another one more on colony-builders, and studios try to reach the relevant democraphic for their game.
''Do a video playing the game, here are some guidelines, here is the monetary compensation we offer.''
Mechanistry did, and still does at each significant content update ( and they get a big boost in sales each time ).
But the streamer who made me discover Timberborn did a Let's Play before there was a paied promotion.
If the game is good, it works. If the streamer actually likes the game and does full series, it works better.
