Massive Cell Outages Trigger Unprecedented 726% Surge in Fortnite Viewership on Twitch

Analysis of Twitch viewer data reveals that the weekly Fortnite viewer ratio (average viewers per channel) increased by more than 726% on February 22nd.

This surge occurred when many US networks, including AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile, experienced outages.

A new finding reveals that the Twitch viewer ratio for Fortnite skyrocketed to more than seven times the average volume in a couple of hours.

Commenting on the findings, Nico Arnold who commissioned the research said:

“In the face of network outages, digital resilience shines as the Twitch viewer ratio for Fortnite surged by 726%, transforming a moment of disconnection into a record-breaking virtual assembly. This underscores the dynamic adaptability of online communities, turning challenges into opportunities for engagement.”
