Never back down, never give up!
Thirteen-year-old Teddy Habib dreams of being a pro gamer. He just never expected he'd end up in the big leagues. And no, not the big esports competitions, like NickEh30. Big leagues as in if he doesn't win this game, the world as we know it is doomed.
When a mysterious new game developer unleashes a bug that’s turning everyone into the “Glitched,” the government’s Special Division steps in. They recruit Teddy; his best friend, Stackz; Teddy’s loyal and surprisingly cuddly German shepherd, Rocco; the indomitable TeenyTerrorPlays; and the agile Keke_Klutch to infiltrate the game.
But if the Stream Team fails . . . well, it's GAME OVER.
