## Still King of the Hill: GTA V Dominates Twitch Viewership in 2024

Eleven years after its initial release, Grand Theft Auto V continues to reign supreme, securing its position as Twitch’s most-watched game of 2024. The streaming platform recently released its viewership statistics, revealing GTA V amassed over 1.4 billion hours watched globally, a testament to its enduring popularity and captivating gameplay.

While GTA V secured the top spot, other titles also enjoyed significant viewership. League of Legends joined the billion-hour club, while competitive shooters proved to be a major draw. Valorant led the charge in that category with 804 million hours watched, followed by Fortnite with over 500 million hours and Call of Duty with 451 million hours.

Twitch’s data also shed light on viewer preferences beyond the games themselves. The platform’s most-watched streamers included familiar faces like xQc, Kai Cenat, Pokimane, and HasanAbi. Interestingly, V-Tubers, streamers using animated avatars, experienced a notable 10% increase in viewership, surpassing a billion hours watched in total. This highlights the growing appeal of virtual personas and the evolving landscape of online entertainment.
