Twitch Chat In Game
by LenyOS
Twitch Chat In Game brings a Twitch channel's chat into the Minecraft window, with messages shown alongside the normal game chat.
What it does
Once a streamer's channel is connected, incoming Twitch messages appear in the game's own chat log, keeping each viewer's original username color. Because the mod integrates with the native chat, players do not need a separate overlay or a second window to follow the conversation.
Only the client needs the mod, so a player can use it in single-player or on any server without the server side installing anything. Connection is handled by typing commands in the chat, and the mod is built for Fabric, with Fabric API required alongside it.
Files are published for Fabric alone, covering 33 release versions in the catalog. The latest Fabric file is 1.3.0 for 1.16.5, released on 2026-08-03, and the code is not open source, so the mod is licensed as All rights reserved.
Key features
Native chat merging
Twitch messages merge with the standard game chat, so they read like any other line in the log.
Username colors kept
Each viewer's Twitch username color is preserved in the in-game messages.
Start and stop commands
The twitchchat start command connects to a channel and twitchchat stop disconnects the chat.
Broad version coverage
Builds exist for many releases, so the same chat workflow applies across them.

Single-player sessions
Because only the client runs the mod, it works in single-player worlds as well as on public servers.
Who it’s for: Players who stream or watch Twitch channels and want chat visible while playing Minecraft. The mod suits single-player and multiplayer clients alike, since it needs only the client side.
