Top 10 streamed games of the week: PUBG Mobile back in top three following championship surge

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 November 18th.

Most watched games

League of Legends leads the chart for another week, and stays well ahead of the crowd with 20.1 million hours watched. The title did see a 15.6 per cent decline in views, but it shows no signs of stopping just yet.

Fortnite is in second place with 16.8 million hours watched, and it also saw a 7.9 per cent decrease in views. PUBG Mobile takes third following a 13.2 per cent rise in views due to the ongoing PUBG 2019 championship. 

Grand Theft Auto V takes fourth place and sees a 4.5 per cent decline, closely followed by Dota 2, which has its way to fifth after a 32 per cent leap in hours watched.

Pokémon Sword/Shield is still going strong on the streaming scene, seeing a small decline of 3.4 per cent in views after a strong launch week. 

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive stays in seventh place, racking up 9.6 million hours watched, and Minecraft remains in eighth only seeing a 4.2 per cent decline in views. 

Garena Free Fire falls to ninth after a 40.3 per cent decline in hours watched. Free Fire recently experienced a surge in South America which appears to be dying down quickly. 

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds brings up the rear in tenth, after amassing 7 million hours watched.
