The role-playing game Baldur’s Gate 3 has had a strong start worldwide on Twitch, Germany is lagging behind. What is striking is that with the role-playing game, some streamers are coming up who are not among the usual suspects who are otherwise at the top of the charts. In the US, role-playing veteran CohhCarnage dominates the charts: the 39-year-old even has a character in the game. In Germany, Maurice Weber is ahead.

    Streamer with its own character in the game pulls through

    Why is CohhCarange so far ahead? You don’t usually see CohhCarnage this high on the charts: the 39-year-old may be a household name, but he usually has a heart for the outsider. He is someone who discovers games. The man usually has nothing to do with “hype”.

    But Baldur’s Gate 3 is his game. The Twitch streamer has accompanied the role-playing game for a long time and even has its own character in the game who is “super annoying”. For the release he bit through and streamed an unusual amount.

    CohhCarnage also says that he has never been on Twitch as much as he is now: he was online twice a day for more than 13 hours.

    How is it in Germany? In Germany, Maurice Weber is at the top of the charts and someone you don’t necessarily expect there:

  • Maurice Weber is number 1 with 75,480 hours: The GameStar “in-house” streamer has quickly made a name for himself on Twitch with his love of strategy and role-playing games
  • In second place is RoyalPhunk, who was significantly stronger than Weber in terms of peak and average viewership, but only showed Baldur’s Gate 3 for 7 hours
  • Shurjoka, Germany’s player of the year 2023, follows in third place.

    • Baldur’s Gate 3 doesn’t seem to be a game for the typical German gaming streamer. The top German streamers concentrate more on games like FIFA, LoL or shooters.

    Top German streamers are currently busy opening loot boxes in CS:GO on Twitch.
