Noxsquad Gameshow

The Noxsquad Gameshow is a fan recreation of a show called the Noxcrew Gameshow. Each episode of the gameshow features 2 teams of 3 contestants, and pits them against one another in a “best of 3” or “best of 5” set of minigames to see who will be the victor.

The show is normally broadcast live, with around 20 people working behind the scenes in roles such as as directors, technicians, camera operators, replay operators, actors, and commentators, and more people besides are involved before we go live to ensure that the show runs smoothly. We also often work in collaboration with Cubed!, bringing the show to their audience of Minecraft fans, with the goal of raising money for the charity SpecialEffect.

Throughout 2018 and 2019, rather than creating a livestreamed show, we recorded and released a full season of episodes featuring a tournament with 8 teams and 24 contestants. This was an incredible challenge for us, given the logistics of scheduling matchups across time-zones, as well as recording and producing over 8 hours of episodes (which extends to over 10 hours when including the live “Community Matchup” event that concluded the season).

All episodes from Season 1 are available to watch now on our YouTube channel. You can also read more about it on our website.
