What is Staged?
Staged is a Windows app for gaming and streaming on one monitor. Your game sits in a movable window, with OBS, chat and other apps arranged around it.
The game runs on a virtual monitor inside your PC. Choose its render resolution separately from your physical screen, for example 1080p on a 1440p or 4K display. Fewer rendered pixels reduce the GPU workload. Staged uses no game hooks or injection.
Requires Windows 11 24H2 or later, x64. Setup includes a signed virtual display driver and asks for administrator approval once. The free full-feature demo provides two hours of Stage-running time, not two hours after installation: https://staged.gg/download.
Developer and publisher: Staged. Paid software with a full-feature trial. Launch price: EUR 14.99, direct purchase at https://staged.gg/buy. Full refund within 14 days. Contact: Staged Team, hello@staged.gg.
