Escape from Tarkov has surged in popularity on Twitch following its 1.0 release and the Twitch Drops campaign. The game’s recent exit from beta and arrival on Steam drew a new wave of viewers.
Content creators who focus on Escape from Tarkov now occupy the top spots for paid subscriptions, outpacing major streamers such as Kai Cenat, Caseoh, and Jynxzi. Topping the list is Pestily, a longtime Tarkov broadcaster with close ties to Battlestate Games. At the time of reporting he had 138,530 active subscriptions — a direct result of the Drops campaign, in which Tarkov players receive rewards for gifting subs to streamers.
In second place is LVNDMARK with 100,052 subscriptions. Also appearing on the list are:
- SheefGG — 58,585 subscriptions;
- Glorious_E — 32,302 subscriptions;
- WillerZ — 18,492 subscriptions.
Most of these subscriptions will lapse in a month since they are gifted, but the figures illustrate Escape from Tarkov’s strong impact following its release.
The Drops campaign is ongoing.
