Multiple English VTubers in the V Sky community held live watch parties and reaction streams for Nintendo's Zelda 40th Direct, inviting viewers to join simultaneous streams and multistreams. Several streamers updated weekly schedules to slot the Direct into planned broadcasts and encouraged viewers to drop in for co-watches, solo reactions, and group chats. Hosts repeatedly flagged specific Direct reveals, praising the Sage of the Forest design and celebrating the return of the “hot bazaar shop guy,” while others noted excitement about the Ocarina of Time remake changes. A few streamers tied the Direct into ongoing series on their channels, pausing or interleaving Zelda reaction content with playthroughs like Elden Ring, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and Minecraft. Some creators announced multi-platform availability for viewers and asked followers to choose which stream to watch, and several scheduled collabs and themed streams around the Direct in the days surrounding the event.
