StreamElements & Rainmaker.gg: Twitch in 2024
The largest streaming platform in the world struggled to find growth.
During the first 11 months of 2024, users spent 18.5 billion hours watching content on Twitch. Last year, for the same period, it was 18.9 billion hours. The lack of growth is explained by competition from other platforms.
The average daily number of viewing hours was record-breaking in Q1’24 (January- February was the best month for this indicator); then, it decreased.
The top 10 most-viewed categories on Twitch have remained unchanged for 5 years. 9 games have been in this list since 2020. And the most popular category is Just Chatting.
Grand Theft Auto V is the leader in the number of viewing hours for the first 11 months of 2024.
KaiCenat is the most popular streamer of 2024. From January to November, he was watched for 184 million hours. The closest follower, ibai, has 90 million hours.
