Free Play was an online Magazine Show created by Rooster Teeth. It gave viewers sneak peeks into Rooster Teeth's other productions, covered gaming news, featured skits, and pitted the hosts and guests against each other in challenges. It was more often than not used as a way for the two hosts, Ryan Haywood and Meg Turney, to poke fun at each other and their workmates, although the same workmates also screwed with them. After five pilot episodes, it became an ongoing show in August 2015, with two or three episodes released weekly until it ended in July 2016.

After serious allegations in October 2020 against Ryan regarding inappropriate behaviour with, and grooming, fans, he has now been Unpersoned from Rooster Teeth, leading to Free Play being removed entirely from both their website and Youtube channel.


Free Play contains examples of the following:

  • Musical Episode: The Season One finale - Free Play does Rocky Horror! note 
  • Running Gag:
    • Confetti cannons and hitting the studio's light fittings with them.
    • Mariel will do anything for forty bucks.
    • Mariel and Tyler are dating. But are they dating each other?
