After more than 50 hours of live on the Twitch platform, the streamers who participated in Z Event 2021, a charity video game marathon, collected this weekend a little more than 10 million euros for the NGO Action contre hunger.

A record sum for such an event.

It's a world record for French streamers.

The participants of Z Event 2021, the sixth edition of the charity video game marathon, raised just over 10 million euros in a weekend for the NGO Action Against Hunger.

A peak for such an event broadcast on the Twitch platform.

The great personalities of the French-speaking video game thus surpass their previous record of 5.7 million euros, last year, for the benefit of Amnesty International.

It was almost one in the morning on the night from Sunday to Monday when the bar of 10 million euros was reached, not without euphoria.
