  1. Apex.
    I play it everyday and always getting matched with Chinese and Japanese.
    I miss the days I used to spam: ugh, she’s going to gloat about this all day…

  2. Minecraft, Elden Ring and still to some extent, Fortnite.

    And as others have mentioned, Apex and Overwatch

  3. The Japanese streamers I watch play mostly Overwatch, Apex, Valorant, and up until recently dark and darker

  4. Apex, Overwatch, Fortnite, Minecraft, FF14.
    I play R6 Siege but most of the players are always Chinese.
    I’ve only met one PC gamer my whole time in Japan, and she’s Chinese and exclusively plays WoW.
    99% of the gamers I’ve met here just play Switch.and the occasional PlayStation.
