On August 11th the new anime MMORPG Tower of Fantasy was released. Since that day, the game has conquered Twitch and is currently the most watched MMORPG. The game even overtakes Fortnite. We at MeinMMO summarize.
What is Tower of Fantasy? The new anime MMORPG is a gacha title that was freshly released on August 11th in the West. The game undoubtedly takes the hit Genshin Impact as a model and wants to transform the gameplay into a real MMORPG.
This means that you share your game world with other players at all times and are accompanied by the corresponding masses of fans in your gaming experience. You can do this not only in the game, but also on Twitch. Tower of Fantasy is enjoying huge success there.
Tower of Fantasy is the biggest MMORPG: There are no official player numbers for the anime success yet, but the numbers on Twitch look promising for the title. Of course, there is always a little more interest in a game at launch, but the MMORPG still cuts a fine figure.
So it can currently, on August 15th, take 10th place in the largest Twitch categories. This not only makes it the biggest MMORPG before World of Warcraft and Lost Ark, but it can even overtake all-time hits like Fortnite, CoD Warzone and CS:GO.
Even the also new and iconic Cult of the Lamb can’t match the success of Tower of Fantasy.

The Twitch Top 10
Who is still ahead of the MMORPG? The undisputed #1 on Twitch remains the Just Chatting category. According to sullygnome, 888,038 viewers watched a total of 58 million hours in this category in the last seven days.
It continues with GTA 5, League of Legends and Valorant, all three of which are around 30 million hours watched. Rust, Dota 2, Minecraft and Apex are between 15 and 22 million.
In 9th place, just ahead of Tower of Fantasy, is the slots gambling category. Only 156,583 people watched here, but for a whopping 10 million hours.
Tower of Fantasy in numbers: Then in 10th place is Tower of Fantasy, which puts down impressive numbers. 38,776 streamers showed the game on their channel in the last 7 days and 276,098 viewers watched it. Together they watched 89.824 million hours of the MMORPG.
That puts it just 20,000 hours past Fortnite. But can beat competitors like Warzone and CS:GO by over a million hours.
does it stay that way That’s rather unlikely. It’s normal for new titles to go through the roof on Twitch. People want to check out the new game and get an idea of Tower of Fantasy. Or maybe they’re playing themselves and want to see what other players are doing.
Just as it’s perfectly normal for games to lose players over time, Tower of Fantasy will also lose Twitch viewers. For example, Lost Ark was the largest category on Twitch when it launched, even ahead of Just Chatting. The MMORPG is currently in 26th place, in just half a year.
So it remains to be seen where Tower of Fantasy can position itself in the long term. What do you think of the title so far? Have you already played it or watched it on Twitch? Write it to us in the comments here on MeinMMO.
