I wonder if that also applies to game reviewers or let's play YouTubers.

  (Edited from a short “Yes, absolutely” to a direct quote from the ftc document that basically answers this question) Q: A year ago, I was given a free $60 video game (and nothing else) in exchange for live streaming my game play. I still love the game and stream it. Do I still need to disclose that I got the game for free? A: How long it would be reasonable for you to make disclosures really depends on the expectations of your fans. After some period of time, it probably wouldn’t matter to them that you got the game for free. If you’re choosing to play a game a year after you got it for free, it probably means you truly like it. The analysis would likely be different if, instead of a $60 video game, you got a free $50,000 car and continued to post about it over the life of the car.” -- https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/resources/ftcs-endorsement-guides-what-people-are-asking https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/resources/ftcs-endorse...
