Overwatch: What is the record of spectators on Twitch?

This week, the Overwatch license returned to the stage and with great fanfare. It is more precisely Overwatch 2 that is talking about him since the closed beta has been available since yesterday for many media and content creators. A handful of streamers therefore broadcast content on Overwatch and obviously there was its share of curious: since its release in 2016, Overwatch had never mobilized spectators so much on Twitch. This is evidenced by the figures identified on Twitchtracker and explained by the journalist video game Nathan Grayson (Washington Post)

Thanks to the launch of the Overwatch 2 beta, Overwatch - a game that stagnated at 10,000 spectators per day ago - reached its record of simultaneous spectators.

476,572 spectators were listed yesterday on the Amazon platform looking at the Overwatch 2. A record therefore, since the release of Overwatch. The previous record? It dates from January 11, 2018: that day, a new season of the overwatch League, 439,152 spectators had been recorded then.

Overwatch: How to explain such a success?

If we recognize that such a successful state success, it is quite easy to explain it for three reasons. The first is simply twitch drops. From 7:00 p.m. French time today, spectators of certain streams overwatch 2 will be able to win a key giving access to the title beta.

The second ? Probably curiosity: released in 2016, Overwatch was unanimous that year by being elected game of the year at Game Awards. Three years later, Overwatch 2 is looming at the 2019 BlizzCon with new features like a PVE mode with a talent tree... Then nothing. The development is complicated with the departures of the director of the Jeff Kaplan game and other well -involved employees on the title, before the various accusations concerning the company come to put an additional brake: no release date is known to date For Overwatch 2.

Finally, the third reason concerns a person. It was notably the broadcast of XQC that panicked the statistics of the game on Twitch. Former professional player of Overwatch converted into successful streamer, the Quebecer brought together more than 150,000 spectators during his first hours of stream on beta, more than a third of the total.
