The Game Awards 2023 totally smashed its own record for the most eyeballs glued to screens during a live event!
Geoff Keighley, the brains behind the whole shebang, spilled the beans that a whopping 118 million people were vibing with the show via livestreams.
The bash went down on December 7 at the Peacock Theater in LA and it was a mega spectacle! Picture this: awesome music acts, big-shot celebs, a bunch of mind-blowing game reveals, and, of course, the highlight—the awards ceremony.
They didn’t just stick to one platform, oh no! This extravaganza was beamed live across 30 platforms, from Twitch and YouTube to Insta, TikTok, WeChat, Weibo, and even Bilibili! Plus, over 17,000 channels were geeking out and co-streaming the show at the same time. Talk about a crazy fan party, right?
This gig kicked off in 2014 with a modest 1.9 million viewers, and boy, has it skyrocketed since then!
