Canadian content creator Felix xQc Lengyel became the 6th streamer in the world to get 11 million Twitch followers. It happened during the stream from July 24, when he played CS:GO, GTA V and Minecraft. Note that he amassed 10 million followers back in February, he was the fifth one who managed to get that many fans.
Ninja, Auronplay and Rubius retained their places in the top three by the number of followers. So far ibai gained the most followers across the platform during the summer of 2022: Spanish creator was behind xQc just a few months ago, and now he is ahead of Canadian streamer by almost 310K followers. This was largely due to his record-breaking boxing event La Velada Del Año II, which took place in June.
The closest pursuers of xQc are shroud (10.22 million followers) and TheGrefg (10.03 million). In turn, Pokimane is now the closest to taking the bar of 10 million followers: however, it’s unlikely she’ll reach the mark soon as poki recently announced that she would take a break from streaming for a while.
XQc was the most watched streamer on Twitch in 2020 and 2021, and he has every chance of maintaining this status by the end of 2022. Canadian streamer mainly plays FPS games, Minecraft, GTA V and other titles, as well as holds sessions in online casinos, and also communicates with fans in the Just Chatting category.
