Just a month later, the NOVA Open preview again didn’t break the 25k viewer number. Generally, these streams get about 30k viewers, however, the first preview after the launch of 10th Edition 40k was already suffering from low viewership. Let’s look at some live viewer numbers via Twitch Tracker The Battle For Oghram preview in July is where numbers really started to dip. So, while the time may have impacted live viewer numbers, it’s not uncommon to see Games Workshop stream a preview when they did. While this one was on quite late, LVO and many other previews around the same time slots have pulled in significantly more viewers in the past. There were some really cool reveals at the WCW preview, but people just didn’t seem to tune in. It’s Official: Hobbyists are Disconnecting From Games Workshop Products This livestream also had almost 10,000 fewer viewers compared to last year’s Grand Narrative, which was in the same time slot. The World Championships of Warhammer preview in November 2023 had the lowest numbers for any of the 10th Edition era previews. However, since then, it seems things haven’t been trending in the right direction regarding live engagement for Games Workshop’s keystone live new release previews. Sure, the hype was real at the beginning of 10th Edition Warhammer 40k. Live viewers have dropped fast for Games Workshop’s previews, as the Warhammer World Championships Twitch stream had the lowest of the year!
