COD takes 2014 console launch week record on Twitch

Over 75,000 unique broadcasters have shared gameplay from Advanced Warfare already

Twitch has confirmed that Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare is the most streamed launch week console game of 2014. 75,000 unique broadcasters shared their gameplay on Twitch while viewers watched the content over 26 million times.

"Since the Call of Duty community on Twitch is extremely passionate, we are not surprised that Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare set a milestone for most streamed console game of the year based on launch week comparisons," said Twitch's Ernest Le.

"Our community spent over an hour a day watching and engaging with people playing the game, illustrating the incredibly strong appeal of live interactive video."

6 million unique viewers hunted down Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare content last week, and ate up over 327 million minutes of it.

"The response from the global community to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare has been incredible, with millions of fans playing the new era of Call of Duty and even more watching the action unfold live on Twitch in its first week in the wild," added Sledgehammer studio head Michael Condrey.

The first copies of Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare were released on November 3 on PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

"The team at the studio is thrilled to see players think the game we've poured our heart and soul into making these last three years is not only fun to play, but very exciting to watch," said Sledgehammer's Glen Schofield.
