National Video Game Day approaches. What better way to celebrate than by adding some exclusive Xbox content to Microsoft Clipchamp? We like to think of ourselves as a video editor for creators, by creators. When we’re not making videos, we’re playing games or watching gaming videos, like the rest of the world. Gameplay video content attracts a global audience of 1.2 billion viewers. Whether on YouTube or Twitch, many gamers use Clipchamp as their preferred gaming video editor of choice.
It’s as simple as recording your webcam and creating picture-in-picture gaming reaction videos and highlight clips. Our content library is filled with GIFs, stickers, and royalty-free stock videos and music to create engaging gaming clips.
This National Video Game Day, we’ve built on our Xbox partnership by adding two exclusive content packs from leading games, Minecraft and Sea of Thieves.
Read on to see how to add the new stickers and video backgrounds to your next gameplay video.
Explore Minecraft content in Clipchamp
Minecraft is still one of the most popular video games 13 years after it was first launched. Over 166 million active monthly players mine blocks and craft bricks in the 3D sandbox game.
When Minecraft players aren’t playing Minecraft, they’re watching Minecraft videos. 1/3 of boys who play Minecraft regularly watch Minecraft-related videos on YouTube. It’s no surprise that the game also dominates live streaming platforms. Minecraft has been streamed for over 11.9 million hours in the last six years on Twitch.
Whether you’re evading creepers and skellies in survival mode or caving for redstone in vanilla mode, you can personalize your gaming edits with our new sticker and intro/outro packs.
Featured Minecraft gameplay stickers
Run out of arrows in hardcore mode but still managed a crit on a zombie with your trusty pickaxe? Commemorate the victory with the Zombie sticker.
Survive a run-in against a wither with only one HP left? Use the health bar sticker to highlight your invincibility!
Armadillo just dropped a scute and now your tamed pale wolf is more durable? Let the mobs know you’re ready for combat with the wolf armor sticker.

Create a Minecraft themed walkthrough of your newly created world with our ready-to-use intro and outro templates. Just select the new Minecraft category in the templates tab on the toolbar to find the full Minecraft video templates collection. You’ll find colorful backgrounds and animated text with preloaded creeper and skelly stickers that you can alter as you please. You are cleared to share stock files for commercial and non-commercial use on social media and other platforms.
Explore Sea of Thieves content in Clipchamp
This swashbuckling, treasure-plundering, free-roamer has gone through another resurgence in popularity after launching crossplay support this year.
Sea of Thieves has seen over 40 million players across multiple platforms, attracting over 44 million hours watched in the past 12 months. The recently launched Safer Seas and Solo Seas modes have torn down the barrier of entry for new players. Now more and more would-be pirates are setting sail in this pirate sandbox.
It doesn't matter if you’re setting off for a solo adventure in a sloop or teaming up in a brigantine or galleon. You can fly your Sea of Thieves mast in your gaming clips with our new range of stickers, video templates and stock video backgrounds.
