'Hogwarts Legacy,' became the most streamed single player game ever on Twitch despite a cancel culture effort going after 'Harry Potter' creator J.K. Rowling.
'Gutfeld!' panelists weigh in on the 'fake boycott' by trans activists of a 'Harry Potter' themed video game online, accusing author J.K. Rowling of being 'transphobic.', after it became the most streamed single player game ever on the platform.
But even that couldn't stop the game, which has received high praise from IGN and other game reviewers, from soaring to the top spot on Twitch. "Hogwarts Legacy" celebrated the news Thursday, sharing that"Hogwarts Legacy" became"the #1 single player game ever" on Twitch"with 1.28M peak concurrent viewers at launch."
"It was never about trans rights or furthering a cause for good," the streamer added."They just want to ruin this thing for you." The media also did their part to try and label the game as racist and transphobic, according to El American editor-at-large Ben Kew.
