Following accusations of plagiarism and copycat naming schemes, Streamlabs has announced that it's removing "OBS" from the name of its popular livestreaming app.

Streamlabs is best known for their free streaming software Streamlabs OBS. The software allows live streamers to set up and customize their streams, as well as display visual alerts for notifications.

Streamlabs has been accused of copying web material and naming schemes for its new console streaming platform, and major streamers are threatening to leave.

The catch is Streamlabs Studio is exclusively available for Twitch streamers broadcasting on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S, and unlike Streamlabs OBS, it's not free.
