As of this writing, the app has over 5 million active users who have shared over 3 million clips.

"As a former professional gamer who launched a career in esports through my own gaming videos, I know firsthand how important and powerful user-generated content is for gamers on socially," Allstar CEO and co-founder Nick Cuomo said in a press release. "I'm beyond excited to partner with a market leader like Overwolf to help us bring the value of creativity and self-expression to more gamers through our technology partnership."

Gamers can watch music videos from their favorite creators on Allstar.
User-generated content is a way for gaming companies to tap into the creativity of their audiences while extending engagement . Overwolf takes this concept one step further by creating a framework for sharing mods, overlays, or private servers without having to leave the game. Now, with Allstar, players can add video clips to that list.

“Allstar makes it easy to create and share amazing content for everyday gamers, and partnerships like this (integrations into platforms with huge audiences like Overwolf) just make so much sense,” said Allstar investor Mark Cuban. "This is going to help bring Allstar's technology to millions of new users and it's a huge win for everyone, especially gamers."
