The Twitch recap feature for this year is here: How to see your recap for 2022 explained

With the year coming to a close, the Twitch recap feature is finally here. Like the popular Spotify Wrapped, the Amazon-owned company has released its annual recap feature, allowing viewers to look at individual stats and channel numbers from 2022. They have also released community-wide numbers, giving us an insight into how the purple platform performed last year.

Twitch recap includes a vast array of metrics to summarize 2022, emphasizing hours watched, categories watched, channel points earned, and chat messages sent. It also lists their most used emotes and the top channels they interacted with.

This time, the recap is not an email sent by the platform but a link that can be accessed from anywhere as long as you are logged into your Twitch account from that device. That said, the emails have been sent to all users, but as mentioned before, it's just an embedded link.

Twitch Recap takes over the internet as streamers and users share their year in review over social media

Social media sites have been doing the year in review for some time now, and people do love to see what they were up to last year. Like Spotify Wrapped, which summarizes the user's song and artist preferences, the streaming app's recap is somewhat similar.

The short clip shared by Twitch on Twitter showcases a variety of things that ruled the streaming world in 2022. Featuring games such as Elden Ring and Call of Duty Warzone to IRL streamers doing crazy shenanigans in public, and of course, Kai Cenat crossing the 100,000 subscriber mark.

According to the community Twitch Recap, users on the purple platform saw a whopping 21 billion hours of watched content, with 788 million hours of streamable content uploaded with a million unique tags. While creators such as Myth, LilyPichu, and FaZe Swagg left for exclusive deals with YouTube Gaming, Twitch added 11 million new streamers to their fold.

They also revealed the top watched categories of the year, with Just Chatting being the clear winner and games such as Grand Theft Auto V, Valorant, and League of Legends all vying for second place.

As soon as the feature was rolled out, social media sites were filled with users and popular streamers sharing their streamer stats. Here are a few big creators showing off how much they streamed:
