New research has revealed that highly-anticipated Harry Potter RPG Hogwarts Legacy has made Twitch streamers more than £47.3k in the first 24 hours after its release.

The highly-anticipated game was finally released for early access at 5 am GMT on Feb 7th for players who purchased the deluxe or Collector’s edition of Hogwarts Legacy – with content creators flocking to streaming platforms like Twitch to debut the game.

The findings, pulled together by casino reviewers Bonusetu, pulled the view count for the new 50 most-watched Twitch streams that show Hogwarts Legacy gameplay, and applied the going rate for sponsored content on the platform – currently £2.92 per 1,000 views.

According to the latest figures, Twitch streamers can expect to make just under £3 for each 1k views through sponsored ads, or by selling games and in-game items via their pages.

With the view count standing at 16,296,000 at 5am on the 8th across the new streams on Twitch, gamers have made more than £47,340 from playing Hogwarts Legacy in its first day.

The most-watched stream so far is from Fextralife with 2.4 million views – equivalent to £6,972 in earnings. Meanwhile, the longest stream uploaded is from Gladd at almost 23 hours long, totalling 215k views and making an estimated £625.

Across all of the 50 most-watched streams uploaded in the first 24 hours, the average view count came in at 325,920, meaning each content creator made £947.

Their earnings are expected to have risen further since the 24 hour mark, as Hogwarts Legacy fans return to previous streams for tips ahead of the game’s general release.

These figures also don’t take into account existing streams uploaded outside of the 24 hour early access window, with some streamers granted even earlier access for review purposes, and others hosting live streams solely promoting Hogwarts Legacy giveaways.
