    Minecraft prevents Fortnite from taking the title of the most-watched game on YouTube of 2019

    Minecraft is the king of YouTube gaming, according to the company's recent Rewind video to wrap up 2019. As tradition dictates, YouTube's Rewind video looks back on the year and highlights the most popular content on the platform. .

    Since the games generate huge views and revenue for YouTube, the video includes a recap of the five most-watched games. Minecraft came out on top with a whopping 100,2 billion views this year. Fortnite's hugely popular battle royale at Epic lags far behind with 60,9 billion views.



    Grand Theft Auto hijacked its way to third place with 36,9 billion views, and Garena Free Fire is fourth with 29,9 billion views. Fifth place belongs to Roblox, a game that seems to be getting more and more popular over time, with 29,6 billion views.

    This marks a continued resurgence for Minecraft, which spent most of 2019 forging its way into the public eye. Despite still having millions of active players, Minecraft had gone somewhat quiet over the past few years, but some big updates and content additions in 2019 have certainly made it back on people's radars.


    A hilarious war broke out between netizens as well, as members of the Minecraft and Fortnite communities tried to score points on each other for various reasons. It looks like Minecraft can match another win bid from its rival, as YouTube confirms that Enderman and Zombies are far more exciting subjects than battling while building houses.
