One line (Wednesday - April 6)

Today’s issue: in the lead in views with Twitch — League of Legends and Starcraft 2, Disney has released a clone of Crossy Road (when will it end?), and the young stream service Plays.tv reached a MAU of 10 million.

1. 21.3% of the total time spent by users watching Twitch falls on esports events,” Newzoo said in her latest research. From this time, 58% was accounted for by MOBA games. Not a surprise, but now we have the exact numbers on our hands. The leaders in viewing hours are five games: League of Legends, Dota 2, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Hearthstone and StarCraft II.

2. Not a day without a game about voxels. And without Disney. The fact is that yesterday in Canada there was a soft launch of Disney Crossy Road, created by the joint efforts of the Walt Disney game studio and the authors of the original game — the Hipster Whale team. It’s still the same game, but with Disney characters.

3. Platform for the removal and sharing of short stream videos Plays.tv reported that its MAU has reached 10 million users. The number of streamers themselves within the framework of the platform has reached the mark of 4 million. The service itself was launched in March last year.
