So, you've been shooting skags across Pandora all evening and you're starting to wind down and think about bed. Before you can slip off into the land of nod, you find yourself with an itch that needs scratching. You boot up Pornhub and, instead of your usual search, you're thinking of continuing the theme of the day... That must be how Borderlands 3 has become the most searched for game on Pornhub this week.
Following a request from PCGamesN, Pornhub has revealed the stats surrounding Borderlands 3 porn searches since the game launched on September 13. The results are mighty impressive. "Our statisticians soon found that over 1 million people have searched for Borderlands in the last 5 days, representing a 12,905% increase over it's daily average," Pornhub writes (that's a sfw link). "That's nearly five times the popularity of Fortnite and three time that of Overwatch, making Borderlands the most searched for game and a top trending term on Pornhub."
You can see from the chart below that previously Borderlands 3 porn wasn't in high demand, but since the game has been in players' hands they've had developed a taste for it.
While searches for 'Borderlands 3' are most popular, there's a string of other, more granular porn types fans are looking for. Here are the top ten searches:
- Borderlands 3
- Borderlands moxxi
- Borderlands 2 (for people looking for vintage porn, I guess)
- Borderlands hentai
- Borderlands lilith
- Borderlands cosplay
- Borderlands futa
- Borderlands tiny tina
- Borderlands maya
- Borderlands gaige
Poor Claptrap doesn't seem to be featured.
Pornhub's also revealed the demographics of people searching for Borderlands 3 porn. It appears that men are 84% more likely to be searching, and 18 - 24 year-olds are 119% more likely to be horny for Gearbox's shooter than any other age group. Porn searchers over the age of 65 are really letting the side down, being 79% less likely to be looking for Borderlands 3 porn.
Pornhub's even explored what people were searching for before and after Borderlands 3 porn, to get an idea of the viewers tastes. Minecraft, Fortnite, and Overwatch all feature, as do hentai and cartoon, furry, and cosplay. There are searches for 'joi' (jerk off instructions), so I presume that's where people are hoping they can find Claptrap. Who wouldn't want that high-pitched robot telling you how to strum yourself to ecstasy?
