Popular Twitch streamer Felix «xQc» Lengyel is known to dabble in gambling while livestreaming, and that content has returned to his channel to the delight of some and the chagrin of others. Responding to the ongoing criticism for the aforementioned Twitch gambling streams, xQc pointed to an occasion in which he turned down $1 million to play mobile games on stream.

During a Twitch livestream on May 19, xQc spoke candidly with his audience as he often does when the topic of gambling came up once again. His Twitch viewers aren't the first to criticize xQc and his return to gambling on Twitch, as fellow streamers Asmongold, Cr1tiKaL, Pokimane, and Myth have also voiced their concerns about the popular streamer returning to gambling content. Ignoring the controversy surrounding his gambling on Twitch, xQc stated that he turned down $1 million in the past because he didn't want to play mobile games.

Telling his Twitch audience that he enjoys gambling, xQc confirmed he's received lucrative offers of up to $1 million from mobile developers to play their games «for a certain amount of hours.» This suggests that the mobile game offers came accompanied by terms that xQc was less comfortable with than his slot sponsorship deal. The popular Twitch streamer mainly turned these offers down because he doesn't like playing them and doesn't have fun with them, unlike when he's gambling which feels right to him.

According to the 2021 Twitch leaks that disclosed how much money many content creators are making, xQc has earned over $8 million since 2019, and the revenue continues to come in as he remains one of the most popular livestreamers. Regularly floating around the top of Twitch view and subscriber
