Ex Twitch Streamer xQc Signs A Record Breaking $100 Million For 2 Years Non Exclusive Deal With Rival Kicks
One of Twitch’s most popular streamers said on Friday that he was joining a rival streaming platform, Kick, in a significant blow to the Amazon-owned site and a sign of its increasingly strained relationship with content creators.
Félix Lengyel, a Canadian known online as xQc, is signing a two-year, roughly $70 million contract, with incentives that could push the total to about $100 million, said his agent, Ryan Morrison.
Mr. Lengyel’s deal — about as large as the two-year contract extension signed by the Los Angeles Lakers’ LeBron James last year — could shake up the economics of the online entertainment world.
“This is more than most professional athletes and megastars,” Mr. Morrison said. “This is one of the highest deals in entertainment, period.”
xQc real name Félix Lengyel is a Canadian Twitch streamer, internet personality, and former professional Overwatch player.
After leaving competitive Overwatch, Lengyel focused on a full-time streaming career on Twitch, while being a content creator for organizations such as Sentinels and Luminosity Gaming.
Although he has been temporarily banned multiple times on the platform, he was the most watched streamer on Twitch for three consectutive years, in 2020, 2021, and 2022.
