FNCS 2023 Viewership and Records
2023 saw the FNCS revamp its structure and introduce a new system to the series. Now, three majors are held in each significant region throughout the year, leading up to the Global Championship. The peak viewership of these events has been slightly lower than some 2022 FNCS events, but watch time remains high. The current Peak Viewers record for the FNCS was set by the 2022 Invitational event, the ultimate event of the 2022 season.
The FNCS 2022 Invitational reached 381.9K peak Viewers during its short runtime, highlighting the power of an international audience for an event. Other popular events include the major European events of the 2022 circuit and an All-Star event held in 2022. The second European Major of 2023 ranks 5th with 181.7K Peak Viewers, but the FNCS 2023 Global Championship will likely rank somewhere in this list thanks to the international audience and drops available.
