More video games are taking to social media to advertise than ever before. While many games have official Twitter and Facebook accounts, some have also made an impact on Instagram, too.
But let’s not forget about Vine. Although its short, six-second, looping video format might appear constraining, it’s becoming an ideal place for companies to advertise upcoming games and reach millions of viewers. Here’s a countdown of the ten most popular game companies and brands you’ll find on Vine today.
10. Nintendo
Splatoon continues to get a lot of love on its official Vine channel, as shown below.
League of Legends draws in millions of players globally, and the game’s official Vine channel sees plenty of game highlights.
8. Treyarch
The developers behind the Call of Duty: Black Ops games keep a large audience with its daily antics and Black Ops III teases.
Another Call of Duty developer, which created the Modern Warfare saga, has its fair share of Vine popularity, including eSports tournament coverage.
6. DOTA 2
Still one of the most popular MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) games out there, DOTA 2 still draws a strong crowd on Vine with its cryptic, humorous videos.
5. Xbox
Microsoft’s Xbox Vine channel has been quite busy lately, particularly with teaser videos leading up to the release of Halo 5: Guardians.
4. Call of Duty
With over 900,000 loops, the Call of Duty Vine page continues to go strong. New videos should post shortly in time for Black Ops III’s release.
3. EA
Although EA’s Vine channel has been suffering from some neglect, older games like Titanfall continue to be popular.
2. PlayStation
With over 700,000 loops, the PlayStation channel continues to see quite a few plays, especially with its look at “classic” PlayStation videos.
1. Ubisoft
