A new report reveals that the most popular game soundtrack on Spotify for 202❀0 include Doom, Minecraft, and Death Stranding.
The new report comes from today, and reveals a slate of new Spotify statistics for 2020. Chiefly, the three most popular game soundtracks over the last 12 months belong to Mojang's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Minecraft, id Software's Doom, and Kojima Productions's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Death Stranding. The report from CNN doesn't elaborate on which version of Doom was responsible for the most s꧋treams on Spotify: it could well be 2016's reboot, or 2020's Eternal.
I wouldn't say there's any huge surprises among the top three on Spotify. Minecraft is by far one of the most popular games on the face of the planet, 🎐and one of Doom's strengths is undoubtedly its excellent soundtrack from composer Mick Gordon. Seeing Death Stranding in the top three game soundtracks on Spotify also isn𝕴't a huge surprise, given that Kojima Productions went to the lengths of recruiting the likes of CHVRCHES, Bring Me the Horizon, and more for original songs.
K/DA is another big winner on Spotify for 2020. Riot Games' superstar group, formed of four characters from League of Legends, increased their streams on Spotify by 109% 𝔉in 2020 compared to 2019. Rounding out the figures is a more general statistic: Spoti🔯fy streams from games consoles were up 55% in 2020 compared to 2019.
Elsewhere in the CNN report, there's a bunch of other eye-raising statistics. Chiefly, Travis Scott's streams through Spotify increased by a massive 207% year-on-year between April 26 and April 30, right after the superstar rapper was featured in a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:gigantic concert in Fortnite.
Scott's been incredibly busy with none other than Sony since the Fortnite concert kicked into gear earlier this year. After designing a range of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PlayStation-related apparel, a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:report last month indicated that Scott could be involved in designing a PS5 game.
