After The International’s slump in viewership, many were concerned over Worlds 2022 viewership – would the event suffer the same fate? Accordingly, we have the answer here. Read on as we describe how Riot Games has once again broken another record!
Worlds 2022 Viewership – Breaking 5 Million
Indeed, Worlds 2022 was a massive success, improving over last year once again. Concluding in the past weekend, with the Grand Final between DRX and T1, the community invested massively with their attention.
So, thanks to Esports Charts, here are the numbers from this year:
- Peak Viewers – 5,147,699
- Average Viewers – 987,437
How does this compare to previous years? Let’s see how it stacks up:
- 2021 – Peak Viewers – 4,018,728
- 2020 – Peak Viewers – 3,882,252
- 2019 – Peak Viewers – 3,985,787
Just like that, Worlds 2022 is now officially the most watched League of Legends esports event in the history of the scene. Many factors were involved, namely the return to a North American venue after a long time together with some incredible storylines.
Indeed, although the community may have its criticisms such as wanting a change in format, Worlds continues to push the ceiling for the esports industry.
