Image: StreamsCharts The most popular games and streamers on Kick With Kick's popularity growing every month, the platform's games and streamers are getting stronger and stronger and some have already established themselves in the Top 10 of the most popular. Among games, of course, broadcasts of online casinos and similar games remain the most popular, thanks to Kick's policy of completely allowing broadcasts of games considered “games of chance”. On competing platforms, such as Twitch, this practice is prohibited, although there are some streamers who manage to “circumvent” the rules. Just like on Twitch, Palworld also debuted directly in the Top 10 of Kick's most popular categories. On the “green platform”, the game, which mixes survival with capturing creatures, was the 8th most watched category, reaching 66 thousand hours watched in January. If we only count games, Palworld was in 5th position.

Check out the Top 10, in total hours watched: Adinross (7.98 million) xQc (7.16 million) N3on (4.48 million) Pottukoiralive (4.39 million) Ac7ionman (4.10 million) Westcol (3.50 million) Roshtein (2.47 million) Trainwreckstv (1.91 million) Brunenger (1.80 million) Mellstroy562 (1.77 million)
