Fortnite Streamer Ninja Celebrates 1 Million Subscribers on Mixer Five Days After Leaving Twitch

His big-money move is proving to be massively successful as Microsoft's streaming platform has hit one million subscribers today. He took to Twitter to address his fans by saying: Today we hit 1,000,000 active subscribers on mixer ^-^ thank you for all the incredible support. I haven't felt this good in a long time.

Ninja has made it clear that the move won't have an impact on the way he games. He said: "It really won't. It's the same me, just a different platform. "I feel like this is a really good chance to get back in touch with my roots, and really remember why I fell in love with streaming in the first place."

So, it looks the it'll only have an effect on his bank account.
