TL;DR: Just Chatting, League of Legends, and Fortnite remain at the top and the Ghost of Tsushima release drew sizable viewership.
Last week’s top ten games streamed across Twitch, YouTube Gaming, and Facebook Gaming were very similar to weeks prior. Just Chatting content is still dominating even though the category is only available on Twitch. Audiences seem to be drawn towards conversational streams to hear opinions, reactions, and have more personal interactions with their favorite streamers. League of Legends doesn’t trail far behind in second place and may swing into first as the Summer Split nears its finale. Fortnite tournaments like the Trio Cash Cup enabled Epic Games’ battle royale to hold onto the third spot for yet another week.
