2024 State of Gaming Report
The Big Game is one of the only events of the year where people look forward to watching commercials.
These multi-million dollar spots can become cultural touchpoints beyond game day, sparking conversations in-person and on social. We saw over 12.3 million actions on posts about these commercials in the days surrounding the game.1
Many of the top posts about these commercials came from the celebrities featured in them, like Nick Jonas, Ozzy Osbourne, Alicia Silverstone, and Melissa McCarthy.1 These household names brought the power of a strong platform on social to support campaigns on social media.

While YouTube had the strongest performance, several brands also cross-posted their spots to other platforms and saw solid engagement.
Ad performance varied on different platforms as each platform has a distinct audience, but we saw Paramount+ in the top 3 everywhere but Instagram. Their fun spot featuring Sylvester Stallone stopped the scroll. Pepsi’s ads with Ben Stiller and Steve Martin also saw strong performance.
