Exclusive: Twitter data shows major increase in gaming engagement on platform
Last week, following multiple mass shootings over the prior weekend, President Donald Trump held a press conference in which he condemned "gruesome and violent video games" for contributing to the "glorification of violence in our society." Within hours, hashtags such as #VideoGamesAreNottoBlame and #GamersAreGood began trending on TwitterGamers' response to President Trump was far from the first time a video game topic went viral on Twitter.
There has also been an increase in where the conversations are coming from. In 2019, there has been a 15 percent increase in unique accounts talking about games on Twitter, signaling a wider swath of users entering the space. A number of major e-sports events have also been driving the trend recently.
Twitter Gaming helps boost content creators, e-sports organizations and game studios working in the industry, but unlike past efforts on Twitter with marquee brands such as the NFL , Chadha sees live content as a "complement to the conversation."
