Twitch’s Hype Train record smashed again by Pirate Software


The KappaInifinite emote reward is gradually rolling out to participants.

Game developer Jason Thor Hall, better known by the moniker Pirate Software, has set a new Twitch Hype Train world record, with his channel reaching level 106 on April 1st. Hype Trains, a feature that Twitched launched in 2020, are a limited-time event triggered when a channel receives an uptick in Bits or subscriptions, pushing past a streamer-designated threshold. The new record set by Hall comes just days after Twitch introduced new Hype Train rewards that could be obtained by reaching level 100, making him the first streamer to unlock the KappaInifinite emote.
