New Twitch Badges for July 2026 — The Complete Overview

July 2026 doesn't hold back: 33 new global Twitch badges dropped across the whole of July — from Esports World Cup 2026 with six Watch- and Sub-tiers down to solo game launches like Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, Pokémon GO or DEAD OR ALIVE 6. And DreamCon 2026 in Rotterdam got five badges of its own. On top of that: six freshly discovered Esports World Cup co-streamer badges — more on those below.

Here's the complete rundown. Every badge links back to its BadgeBase page with streamer list, collector data and a live indicator. If you don't want to miss a drop: subscribe to the iCal feed or peek at the timeline.

🧸 Final Fantasy XIV Fan Festival 2026 EU — 2 badges

• Content Unlock Quest Chat — watchtime in the FFXIV category
• Moogle Chat — watchtime in the FFXIV category

Bonus trivia: the NA edition back in April had the curious Fat Cat Chat mishap — let's see if the EU round goes smoother.

🎪 TwitchCon San Diego 2026 — now live

Update: both TwitchCon badges have officially started! They've been claimable since July 22 and stay claimable until November 15, 2026. Neither is earned by watching or subbing — both come with a TwitchCon San Diego 2026 ticket:

• TwitchCon 2026 — San Diego — Taco — for 3-day ticket holders
• TwitchCon 2026 — San Diego — BeachBall — for 1-day ticket holders

You'll find all TwitchCon badges collected under #twitchcon.

👑 Newly discovered: EWC 2026 Co-Streamer — 6 badges

Fresh finds in the archive: six free badges for Esports World Cup co-streamers, handed out through the EWC creator program. This isn't a casual grab — you need to apply with truthful details, and the bar sits at roughly 50 concurrent viewers (CCV). The start is tentatively slated for early August 2026, but still unconfirmed (TBA):

• EWC 2026 Co-Streamer (Bronze)
• EWC 2026 Co-Streamer (Silver)
• EWC 2026 Co-Streamer (Gold)
• EWC 2026 Co-Streamer (Platinum)
• EWC 2026 Co-Streamer (Diamond)
• EWC 2026 Co-Streamer (Ultraviolet)

🕸️ Late-July additions — 3 badges

Three more short-lived drops landed after the last update, each with a window of just two to three days:

• La Velada VI — free, just watch Ibai's event on 25 July. With over 2,300 collectors in the archive by now, one of the month's strongest short drops — edged out only by Moogle Chat at around 2,500.
• Spider-Man — for subscribing or gifting a sub to a streamer in the Marvel Tōkon category during the Open Beta, 24 to 27 July.
• Budz — for subscribing to studbudz during WNBA All-Star Weekend, 23 to 26 July.

That takes July to 33 badges. Curious which of them turned rare? The Rarest list sorts by collector count.

🏳️‍🌈 Closing the month: Dead by Daylight Pride Icon

One more badge arrived right at the end, and it is the most unusual of the month: the Dead by Daylight Pride Icon belongs to Into the Rainbow, the campaign Behaviour Interactive runs to raise money for InterPride. You earn it with a sub or a gift sub to a participating Dead by Daylight streamer — so unlike most sub badges, part of what you pay goes to a charity. It opened on 28 July and stays claimable until 10 August, which makes it the only July badge still reaching into August, and the only one still up for grabs.

What to keep on your radar

The tightest windows: the three Pokémon GO team badges (~24 hours each), followed by Meltan (2 days) and Dream Beyond (3 days). If you want the whole of July 2026 in your calendar, hook up the iCal feed — every start and end date lands automatically in Google Calendar or Apple Calendar.

What changed on BadgeBase itself during the same month is in the July site recap. And if you want to see where you rank right now: the 2026 Leaderboard only counts badges that started this year.
