StreamElements: Games get streaming viewership boost with updates

StreamElements‘ latest monthly report shows that Twitch and YouTube are holding steady in viewership numbers. A few games — Monster Hunter Rise and Fall Guys in particular — have seen a massive uptick in numbers, correlating with in-game content updates. The list of biggest streamers also now includes a number of Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking content creators.

According to data from Rainmaker.gg, StreamElements’ analytics partner, both Twitch and YouTube Gaming have a slight increase in numbers from June to July. It’s not a large difference — Twitch went from 1.734 billion hours watched to 1.737 billion, and YouTube went from 290 million to 292 million. It’s most likely because July is one day longer than June.
