Asmongold Takes Top Spot as North America's Most-Watched Streamer in Early 2025


Asmongold

Asmongold has become North America's most-watched streamer during the first quarter of 2025, surpassing other popular content creators like Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed.


According to StreamsCharts, Asmongold accumulated an impressive 26.22 million hours of watched content in just the first three months of the year. This figure slightly edges out Kai Cenat, who garnered about 4 million fewer hours during the same period.


However, the two streamers differ significantly in their streaming durations. Asmongold, broadcasting on his zackrawrr account, was live for 567 hours on the platform, while Cenat had only 274 hours of airtime.


TimTheTatman secured third place in North America with over 20 million hours watched. He streamed for a staggering 1,002 hours - the most among all top 10 streamers. His recent focus on the new game Marvel Rivals has helped fuel his resurgence in popularity.


Canadian streamer xQc holds 6th place with 17.61 million hours watched across both Twitch and Kick platforms, making him the most-watched Canadian and Kick streamer simultaneously.


Meanwhile, IShowSpeed rounds out the top ten North American streamers with nearly 16 million hours watched, earning the title of top YouTube broadcaster in the region.


Here’s the list of the top 10 streamers in Q1 of 2025:


  1. Asmongold /Zackrawrr: 26.22 million hours watched in 567 hours 45 minutes airtime.

  2. KaiCenat: 22.10 million hours watched in 274 hours 45 minutes airtime.

  3. TimTheTatman: 20.21 million hours watched in 1,002 hours 40 minutes airtime.

  4. HasanAbi: 19.70 million hours watched in 649 hours 30 minutes airtime.

  5. Jynxzi: 19.57 million hours watched in 697 hours 10 minutes airtime.

  10. summit1g: 13.83 million hours watched in 2,280 hours 30 minutes airtime.


While Asmongold dominates North America, he ranks third globally. StreamsCharts data shows that European League of Legends broadcaster Caedrel tops the European rankings with 30.28 million hours watched.


However, both are overshadowed by Brazilian football commentator CazéTV, who has accumulated an astonishing 167.50 million hours watched so far in 2025 - making him the most-watched streamer worldwide by a considerable margin.


The first quarter of 2025 featured various content trends that boosted viewership across streaming platforms. As noted by Streams Charts, influencer events, political discussions, sports coverage, and new gaming releases all contributed to record-breaking viewership. Asmongold particularly benefited from trying almost all newly released video games, which helped increase his quarterly watch time by 39%.


Kai Cenat maintained his popularity through marathon streaming events, including his "Mafiathon" subathon and a Batman: Arkham series playthrough where he completed all four main games consecutively. He also boosted his visibility by attending high-profile events like the WWE Royal Rumble and the 67th Grammy Awards.


Other notable North American streamers in the top rankings include Hasan Piker, who gained significant viewership covering President Trump's inauguration, along with friends Nicholas "Jynxzi" Stewart and Case "Caseoh" Baker, who secured 5th and 7th positions respectively.
