Fortnite Has Become the Most Watched and Streamed Game On Twitch

4.3
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds may have been the top dog in the Battle Royale arena for a while there, but clearly it’s time for Epic Games’ Fortnite to shine.

Hot off the news reports from Good Morning America and other outlets discussing the “Fortnite Craze”, the game’s popularity has continued to soar, and a new report from Fortnite Intel suggests its popularity has taken over Twitch in a huge way.

With the statistics, provided by SullyGnome, the report reveals that Epic Games’ hit multiplayer game has become the most watched and streamed game on Twitch, beating out the likes of League of Legends, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Overwatch and, yes, PUBG.

The stats indicate that over the past 14 days, the game has been watched a grand total of 4,882 years and 208 days (over the last two weeks, again), and it has been streamed for a total of 246 years and 231 days. That’s a lot of time.

And it’s also double of what PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has managed to accomplish. Its watch time has only been 2,521 years and 277 days over the last two weeks, and about 106 years and 194 days in streaming time.

This didnt come to me as a surprise at all, like Cent said it was only a matter of time. Over the last year the growth this game has received has been absolutely crazy, just look at social media.

Was only of matter of time, such a good and fun game I'm glad to see it's doing so well.
