Tips to Make Your Gaming Clips Stand Out #
If you want your gaming highlights to grab attention, here are some simple ways to make them more engaging:
- Focus on highlights – Finding highlights manually can take 2–3 hours for every VOD. The Eklipse Highlight Maker gets it done in minutes. Connect your streaming account now to get your first clips.
- Add captions and music – Subtitles and background audio make every clip easier to follow and more fun to watch, boosting viewer retention by up to 15% on short-form videos.
- Use vertical format – Short-form gaming content performs best in 9:16 aspect ratio for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. Start using the best horizontal-to-vertical converter to keep key elements like the facecam or HUD perfectly in frame.
- Keep it short – 15–30 seconds is the sweet spot to maximize views and engagement.
- Try AI tools – Try using Eklipse to automatically generate gaming clips that stand out and keep viewers engaged.

How Long Should Gaming Clips Be? #
For the best engagement, keep clips between 15–30 seconds. Short-form platforms like TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts reward concise videos that hold attention. Longer videos often lose viewers before the highlight ends.
