Ninja is streaming on YouTube

It's not a surprise, given yesterday's leaked test stream, but Ninja is streaming on YouTube today. With the demise of Mixer looming, this is confirmation that he's at least giving Google's platform a shot.

He's not alone. The Ninja stream that's currently sitting idle on YouTube says that he'll be joined in his Fortnite adventures by fellow big-time streamers TimtheTatman, Courage, and DrLupo.

The nature of Ninja's apparent new deal isn't known yet, if there is a deal, but we expect to have the details soon, and we'll let you know when we do.

Andy has been gaming on PCs from the very beginning, starting as a youngster with text adventures and primitive action games on a cassette-based TRS80. From there he graduated to the glory days of Sierra Online adventures and Microprose sims, ran a local BBS, learned how to build PCs, and developed a longstanding love of RPGs, immersive sims, and shooters. He began writing videogame news in 2007 for The Escapist and somehow managed to avoid getting fired until 2014, when he joined the storied ranks of PC Gamer. He covers all aspects of the industry, from new game announcements and patch notes to legal disputes, Twitch beefs, esports, and Henry Cavill. Lots of Henry Cavill.
