If you like following gaming content in your native language then following some Dutch gamers is the perfect way to practice!
Listening to spoken Dutch is an important part of the learning process.
As a beginner you can’t understand every word yet, so for the best chance of making learning part of your routine, it’s wise to consume content around a topic that you enjoy or already know something about.
All YouTube channels on this list have auto-generated closed captioning in Dutch, but can also be auto-translated into several other languages.
Have a look at these 13 Dutch gamers whose content you can add to your feed in 2024:
1. GameMeneer
Don posts gaming and entertainment videos almost daily to his YouTube channel and is live twice per week on Twitch.
He plays several different games and there are actually more than 4,000 videos on his YouTube channel but a few recent games you can find on his channel are:
- City Skylines 2
- Poppy Playtime
- Lethal Company
Subtitles: YouTube subtitles are available in Dutch, but can also be auto-translated into several other languages. No subtitles on Twitch.

This is by no means an exhaustive list of Dutch gamers — but hopefully gives enough variety for you to find something to stick with.
Once you start watching more of the videos you like, YouTube will do its thing and recommend other Dutch gamers that you might be interested in. This is often how I find new channels!
