New Twitch Badges for September 2026 – The Complete Overview

September 2026 turned out busier than its first days suggested: SUBtember opened the month, and since then ELDEN RING, ZEVENT, WARDOGS, Onimusha and the nopixel V relaunch have all queued up behind it. This article collects every global Twitch badge that is collectable in September or starts fresh, with start and end dates. Like the August overview, it grows over the month: as soon as a new drop shows up in the archive, I add it here.

Every badge links straight to its BadgeBase page with the streamer list, collector overview and live indicator. So you never miss a start: subscribe to the iCal calendar, check the timeline or turn on the Badge Alert. The full live list lives on the active badges page.

🎉 SUBtember 2026

Twitch's annual sub promotion SUBtember has been running since August 29 and continues all through September, until October 1. It is practically identical to the last two years (source: tos.gg). Fittingly, there is the SUBtember 2026 badge. We celebrate the month on badgebase_de and are giving away Twitch Turbo on the side.

🦇 LEGO Batman: Harley Mayhem

For the release of the new LEGO DC game, Twitch is running a badge series, announced by the LEGO DC Game. Harley Mayhem is paid (sub, gift or Bits) and runs from September 1 to 20, tied to the LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight category. A second badge around the Joker was announced for the middle of the month, but it has not turned up in the archive yet. It will appear here the moment it does.

⚔️ Sorcerer Rogier: ELDEN RING

Quietly running since the first of the month and already over a thousand collectors strong: Sorcerer Rogier is paid and comes from a sub or gifted sub to a stream in the ELDEN RING category. The window is generous by the standards of this month, September 1 to 29, so there is no rush.

🐭 Ironmouse Mouseathon

A free event badge around Ironmouse's Mouseathon: Mouseathon is available from September 2 until October 1. Announced by AlphaDuplo, reported in the tos.gg recap. With more than four thousand collectors it is one of the month's most popular free badges.

🐮 MOOtivation: six hours and gone

The shortest window of the month by a wide margin. MOOtivation was free and open for exactly six hours on September 2. Over three thousand people made it in time, which says something about how fast the community reacts. If you missed it, there is no second chance, and it is a good argument for the Badge Alert.

🩸 The Blood of Dawnwalker

For the launch of The Blood of Dawnwalker there are two badges, both running September 3 to October 1: the free Launch badge for watching in the category, and the paid Supporter badge for a sub.

🇫🇷 ZEVENT 2026

The French charity marathon returns, and with it a free badge: ZEVENT 2026, from September 3 (6 PM) to September 7. Watching is enough, but plan for roughly an hour of watch time, which is why the first collectors only appeared an hour after the start. Nearly two thousand people already have it. More about the event at zevent.fr.

🐕 WARDOG and WARLORD

Two badges from the WARDOGS category, both from September 3 (8 PM) to September 30. WARDOG is free and drops after 30 minutes of watching. WARLORD is paid and needs a sub or gifted sub in the category. A clean pair for anyone who wants to take one of each without committing an evening.

🗡️ Onimusha Armament

For Onimusha: Way of the Sword there is the paid Onimusha Armament badge, from September 4 to September 18, via a sub or gifted sub in the game's category.

🚗 nopixel V Launch and GTA RP Week

The biggest thing still ahead this month. Twitch is celebrating the relaunch of nopixel V, the best known GTA roleplay server, with GTA RP Week. The paid nopixel V Launch badge comes from a sub to any stream in the Grand Theft Auto V category between September 8 and 30.

Worth knowing, because it is easy to get wrong: watching does not earn this badge. Viewers collect the in-game Drops instead, up to GTA $1,500,000 and the Burger Shot Tracksuit, staggered over one, two, four and six hours. Two rewards in the same window, two different conditions. On top of that there are three new global emotes, limited-time Cheermotes in the category and a nopixel Extension with a collectible card each day. Everything is laid out in the official Twitch announcement.

🐂 Resonance Minotaur: final stretch until September 23

Still around from August: the free Resonance Minotaur drops after 60 minutes in the game's Drops category and runs until September 23.

🐾 Pokémon: Pichu and the starters

The Pokémon chat badges from August keep running, until October 1. Pichu is free (watch 20 minutes on 3 days in a participating category) and with over nine thousand collectors the most collected badge of the month by far; Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle come one per sub or gifted sub, with 3 subs getting all three.

🔥 Diablo (BlizzCon)

Around BlizzCon there is the paid Diablo badge, but only in a very short window: from September 12 (10 AM) to September 13. Announced by AlphaDuplo.

🎮 DRON-E: Rainbow Six Siege

For the Wasteland Circuit event of Operation Split Fire comes the paid DRON-E badge, from September 23 to October 13, via a sub to a participating Rainbow Six Siege stream. Source: AlphaDuplo.

🎪 TwitchCon San Diego 2026: still claimable

The two ticket badges stay claimable all through September, until November 15: Taco (3-day ticket) and BeachBall (1-day ticket). The schedule is now online. All TwitchCon badges collected under #twitchcon.

What to keep in mind

MOOtivation already showed how fast a window can close: six hours, then over. Of what is left, Diablo is the tightest at September 12 to 13, followed by ZEVENT (until September 7), Onimusha (until September 18), Harley Mayhem (until September 20) and Resonance Minotaur (until September 23). You have until the end of the month for WARDOG, WARLORD and Sorcerer Rogier, and until October 1 for Pokémon, Mouseathon, Dawnwalker and nopixel.
