Top 10 streamed games of the week: views spike for Dota 2 and Minecraft

InfluencerUpdate.biz has teamed up with esports and streaming analytics firm Stream Hatchet to bring you weekly charts of the most popular games in the streaming space.

This chart documents the most-watched games by hours across Twitch, YouTube Gaming, Mixer and Facebook.

Each week we'll be documenting the top ten most-watched titles across all the major streaming platforms so you can see which games are thriving among content creators and which titles are waning in popularity. We also have a chart documenting the week's biggest content creators.

This chart covers the week commencing February 10th, 2020.

Most-watched games

It goes without saying that League of Legends is leading the charge for another week. Riot's MOBA saw a tiny 1.5 per cent dip in views last week, but 37.6 million hours watched keeps the title pretty untouchable. 

Grand Theft Auto V enjoys another week in second place and a 4.4 per cent dip in views isn't enough to displace it. Fortnite clocks in at number three with no real change to its views.

PUBG Mobile stays in fourth and sees a mild 2.9 per cent jump in hours watched. Escape From Tarkov also stays put in fifth for another week, but sees a 2.7 per cent decrease in views.

Dota 2 is the big riser this week, and a 37.6 per cent increase in view's puts Valve's MOBA back in sixth place. Counter-Strike: Global Offensive gets knocked to seventh place, but also sees a 22.2 per cent dropoff in views. 

Garena Free Fire moves up to seventh place despite a 7.1 per cent decrease in views. Apex Legends slides down into ninth following a 13.7 per cent drop off in hours watched also. Minecraft closes the chart in tenth and sees a sizeable view rise of 22.1 per cent.
