Tinder is a very popular app for meeting new people. It is now striking that the number of people looking for a game partner on Tinder is still rising. Read here which games are the most popular on Tinder and which pitches are mentioned.
Tinder started in 2012 during a hackathon at Hatch Labs and is the world’s most popular app for meeting new people. The app is available in 190 countries and more than 40 languages, has been downloaded more than 530 million times and has resulted in more than 75 billion matches.
Gamer in bio on Tinder
Tinder notices that more and more of their members are hosting video game dates as it was the perfect date option during the lockdowns. Still, the number of people looking for a game partner on Tinder is also increasing. Recent statistics from Tinder show that more and more users are using the word “Gamer” in their bio. In fact, it has become 4 times more popular than the year before.
A first date in which you meet online in a game is of course a lot less exciting than a first date in real-life. Perhaps that is why in the Netherlands the number of times “Gamer” was mentioned in a bio increased by more than 83% between 2020 and 2022. So are you still looking for a game partner? Put it in your bio!
The most popular games that are mentioned more often on Tinder in 2022 compared to 2021 are:
1. Mario kart – up 344%
2. Sims – up 308%
3. Fifa – a 20% increase
4. Fortnite – a 52% increase
5. League of Legends – a 40% increase
Gaming is slowly becoming a regular part of online dating. These are some of the last ones, on gaming inspired pitches that we have seen:
• “I’ll let you win on Mario Kart”, or “I’ll beat you at Mario Kart”.
• “Previously married (on the Sims)”
• “Let’s put our Minecraft beds together”
• “Looking for a Fortnite partner”
