Upcoming PS5 release, Returnal, garners over 102,000 Twitch viewers at peak

Returnal Already Hitting Massive Numbers on Twitch

Returnal, the highly anticipated third-person shooter with elements of rogue-like and psychological horror, is already creating a buzz among fans. With positive reviews and exciting gameplay, it’s no wonder that the game is drawing in massive numbers on Twitch.

Impressive Viewer Count Before Official Launch

Prior to its official release on April 30, Returnal is already peaking at over 102,844 viewers on Twitch. The game has an early average of around 52,000 viewers, and this number is steadily growing throughout the day, according to Twitchmetrics.

A Game That Streamers Can’t Resist

Returnal is expected to be a significant hit among streamers due to its unique gameplay mechanics. The goal of the game is to stay alive and avoid restarting a run, as the world changes with each resurrection. The engaging storyline, intense gunplay, and stunning graphics make it a thrilling experience for both viewers and streamers, as long as they can survive long enough.

Similar to Dark Souls, but with a Twist

In a similar vein to Dark Souls, Returnal offers viewers an opportunity to witness incredible gameplay and watch streamers struggle against the relentless alien enemies. Progression is key, as there are no difficulty options available.

While the game is officially out in certain regions and many streamers have received early copies to showcase, it’s advisable to steer clear of Twitch and YouTube if you want to avoid spoilers before experiencing the game yourself.
