The Battlefield 6 beta is currently the most popular game on Twitch, attracting 750,000 viewers, which is significantly higher than other top games combined. This surge in viewership is largely driven by both major streamers and longtime Battlefield fans. Gamers without access to the beta are motivated to watch for 30 minutes to earn an access code, in addition to receiving various rewards for continued viewing. The game has shown extraordinary interest on platforms like Steam, indicating DICE and EA have successfully captivated audiences with this release.
As of this writing, the Battlefield 6 beta has 750,000 viewers on Twitch. If you look at that top Twitch row, the next five games - combined - have a total number of viewers that's just below BF6's number of concurrent viewers.
Battlefield 6 is very hot right now, which makes it an attractive game for viewers. This phenomenon isn't exclusive to Battlefiled games, or even shooters, but it is rare to see it for a Battlefield title.
Players who do not have access to the Early Access portion of the beta are incentivised to watch for just 30 minutes to receive a code. The same Twitch Drops event also awards players with various other weapon and character skins for watching beyond the 30 minutes.
DICE and EA clearly have a hit on their hands, as evidenced by the Battlefield 6 beta's staggering numbers on Steam, and the response coming out of the recent multiplayer reveal event.
