Game news Elden Ring: FromSoftware’s game seduces everyone and achieves a nice record
Since its launch on February 25, Elden Ring has been making waves and setting new records. Moreover, today we learn that the title has attracted a large number of players on Twitch.
Numbers that don’t lie
Elden Ring, the latest creation from FromSoftware is a real success. The title was unanimous with the press and players and, according to the latest news, it has sold more than 12 million copies worldwide. That’s not all, according to statistics from Stream Hatchet (a streaming analytics tool) shared by Big Games Machine, the RPG also performed well on Twitch.
Thanks to the figures of Stream Hatchet therefore, we learn that Elden Ring has totaled more than 215 million hours of viewing on Twitch in just over a month and even garnered over a million concurrent viewers in its first week of launch. With such a score, FromSoftware’s game is obviously the most watched game from the Japanese studio.
Dark Souls, Bloodborne… Games also watched
Stream Hatchet took it a step further and looked at the stats of older FromSoftware productions, and what we learn is that Bloodborne is the least popular game on Twitch since it has “only” counted a total of 60 million hours watched since the analysis tool was functional, i.e. since 2016. Then we find
Sekiro Shadows Die Twice which is FromSoftware’s second biggest hit. Even though the game only garnered a total of 30 million watch hours in its first two weeks of release, in total the game has amassed 94 million watch hours.
On his side, Dark Souls totaled 97 million hours watched on Twitch since 2016, but only when Dark Souls Remastered was released, either in 2018, that the RPG had its success on the platform. The latter has also recorded more than 10 million hours watched in just one month.
Behind Elden Ring, we find Dark Souls III with its 161 million hours watched. Note that this score was made over the long term, since on the streaming platform, the game obtained two renewed interests: after the release of The Fire Fades edition in 2017 and following the first confinement. Between June and July, the title recorded a total of 8 million hours of viewing.
