It's been a week since the release of The Quarry, a game that embodies a mixture of an interactive movie and survival horror. Supermassive Games developed the title, and the new game is usually labeled as a spiritual successor of their previous hit Until Dawn. The title aroused great interest among players and streamers, so the game quickly became one of the most popular categories on Twitch. Streams Charts tells you about game statistics and the most popular streamers.
In terms of gameplay, The Quarry is almost identical to Until Dawn: the player controls several characters at once, who can die in over 10 different ways. For the convenience of casual gamers, a cinematic mode has also been introduced, which allows one to remove additional gameplay elements and focus on the action on the screen.
One of the main new features compared to Until Dawn is multiplayer, but its launch has not yet taken place. The Quarry was one of the games heavily affected by the war unleashed by Russia: some developers had to evacuate from Ukraine, which is why the launch of the multiplayer mode was postponed indefinitely: however, the studio has already set a deadline, which is July 8.
As in the case of Until Dawn, many eminent and young actors took part in the creation of the game, among which are Ethan Suplee (The Wolf of Wall Street, My Name is Earl), Grace Zabriskie (Twin Peaks, Wild at Heart, Armageddon), Lance Henriksen (Aliens, The Terminator). But there are other stars that make the game a success with the audience: streamers, thanks to whom The Quarry quickly broke into the top 10 most watched categories on Twitch. Let's take a look at its viewership statistics.
The Quarry Twitch Viewership Statistics
In the week since the release, the game has amassed over 12.5 million Hours Watched, making it the fifth most-watched category on Twitch between June 10 and 16. The novelty was ahead of many popular titles, including Minecraft, Fortnite and CS:GO.

As we have noted, the release day turned out to be the most successful for The Quarry on Twitch. Every day the audience of the game on the platform is gradually decreasing, but the rate of decline is definitely not extremely high. It is likely that we will see the title in the top 10 categories of Twitch next week.
