10 Best Twitch Streams (November 2025)

Twitch isn’t just about the games; it’s about the way those games come alive through the streamers who play them. Some titles create hype with huge esports moments, others shine because of endless creativity, and some thrive simply because they’re great. Here’s a look at the best 10 Twitch streams right now and, more importantly, why their streams keep pulling viewers in.

10. Apex Legends

APEX LEGENDS continues to thrive on Twitch, where fast-paced firefights and clutch squad plays keep viewers locked in. It’s an online multiplayer battle game, though it also offers modes that let you play solo or with just one teammate. In the standard battle royale mode, players drop in as squads of three. Each avatar, known as a Legend, comes with its own special abilities, and the roster now includes twenty-five playable characters. You cannot choose the same Legend as your squadmates, which encourages team variety and strategic balance. Every Legend features a distinct personality, design, and playstyle. At the start of each match, all teams load into an aircraft soaring over the map, choosing the perfect drop point to begin the fight.

9. Fortnite

The game has multiple modes that players can switch through. Fortnite is a cooperative game with four players working towards a common mission. Additionally, you have to avoid the effects of a dangerous storm. You are a commander of a home base shelter. So, you must collect resources, save survivors, and use defensive equipment to collect data on the storm. Players receive avatars, weapons, trap schematics, and survivors. They can all be leveled up through gained experience. As you progress, the safe area of the map shrinks in size. Failing to secure a safe place will result in your elimination. 

8. Valorant

Here, you are cast as an agent in a tactical hero shooter. The agents are based in several countries around the world. You either attack or defend as a group of five. Their powers require charges. They are charged using kills, deaths, orbs, or finishing tasks. You start each round with a pistol and one or more signature ability charges. Other weapons and ability charges are purchased in the game. They include sidearms and primary guns like submachine guns, shotguns, machine guns, assault rifles, and sniper rifles.

7. Dota 2

Dota 2 remains a major force on Twitch, drawing viewers in with its high-skill battles, dramatic turnarounds, and intense late-game team fights. It’s a multiplayer online battle arena featuring two teams of five players, each trying to destroy the opposing team’s Ancient while defending their own. At the start of each match, players choose from 126 unique heroes, all with different strengths, weaknesses, and playstyles. Every player takes on either a core or support role. Cores begin the match weak but grow stronger as they farm and progress, eventually becoming the team’s main damage dealers. Supports focus less on raw damage and more on helping the team by providing healing, control, vision, and protection. This blend of strategy, teamwork, and high-pressure plays is what keeps Dota 2 consistently popular on Twitch.

6. Dead by Daylight

Dead by Daylight remains a huge hit on Twitch, with streamers showcasing everything from clutch survivor escapes to terrifying killer plays. In this asymmetrical horror match, you take on the role of either a killer or one of four survivors in what the game calls a trial.

Survivors must work together to repair five of the seven generators scattered across the map to power the exit gates and escape. The killer’s goal is to hunt them down and impale each survivor on hooks before they get out. When only one survivor remains, a hatch appears at a random location, offering a last-chance escape, unless the killer finds and closes it first. If the hatch is closed or an exit gate is opened, the two-minute Endgame Collapse begins, forcing a frantic final showdown that Twitch viewers love watching in real time.

5. Grand Theft Auto V

GTA V is a very popular game that follows the narrative of a street hustler, a retired bank robber, and a psychopath. They found themselves entangled with some dangerous people in the criminal underworld. They include the government and influential people in the entertainment industry. So, the three characters must pull off a series of dangerous heists to survive. The match includes an improved system that lets PC players transfer their stories and progress via a one-time migration. Additionally, it comes with amazing graphics. 

4. Minecraft

The game is a sandbox game with no specific goal. You have the freedom to do what you want. In it, you find a world made of rough 3D objects, mainly cubes. They represent various materials such as dirt, stone, ores, tree trunks, and water. Additionally, they are arranged in a voxel grid. You can break and mine them and place them elsewhere, allowing you to build things.  Gravity in the game, however, is not affected, as the game retains its voxel position even in the air.

3. Counter-Strike

Here, players enter into a first-person shooter match. There are two opposing teams. They include the terrorists and counter-terrorists. You complete objectives, such as securing locations, planting or defusing bombs, and rescuing and guarding hostages. Also, after winning each round, you get more money. Additionally, killing enemies earns you cash bonuses. You can use the money to get better weapons. On the other hand, actions such as harming your teammates result in a penalty. Counter-Strike will keep you queuing up for just one more match, long after you thought you were done playing.

2. ARC Raiders

In this extraction shooter, you play from a third-person perspective. You leave an underground base to search for items on the planet’s surface for 30 minutes. As you progress, you are attacked by ruthless robots. If killed, you lose any equipment and materials you collected during the loot. Additionally, you can escape through extraction elevators and metro stations. Other than that, players use raider hatches to return to base. Furthermore, after returning, you can sell your items to upgrade your character’s perks and skills. Alternatively, you can choose to upgrade your gadgets.

10. League of Legends

League of Legends continues to dominate Twitch as one of the most-watched games this month. It’s a competitive 5v5 multiplayer title where you jump into a match as a champion and fight to outplay your opponents. Taking down enemies earns you experience, helping your champion level up and unlock stronger abilities.

You can also power up by purchasing items using gold earned from defeating minions, enemy champions and taking down structures. Items can only be bought when you’re back at your team’s base, using the in-game shop menu. Every match is completely self-contained, meaning your items and progress reset each time, keeping the gameplay fresh and forcing players to adapt and strategize every game.
