Top 60 Most Popular Gaming Instagram Hashtags | Pro Gaming Crew

Trying to figure out what the best gaming hashtags are to use on your Instagram post? Maybe you are just struggling to come up with gaming related hashtags in general. Conjuring up gaming hashtags on your Instagram post can be a daunting task, if you don't know where to start.

Which is why we are offering you an extensive list of the most popular gaming tags currently being used on Instagram. For those that don't know, you can have a maximum of 30 tags on each Instagram post. You should be using all 30 tags as well.

Using the correct gaming hashtags can be the difference between getting 1 or 100 likes. We have seen a lot of gamers post some really great content, but have either no tags or irrelevant tags. If you don't put the appropriate gaming hashtags in your Instagram caption, it can completely destroy any chance of your Instagram post being exposed to get more likes and views on your Instagram gaming account. 

If you are looking for captions for your posts, you can have a look at our 23 gamer quotes for Instagram article here.

Keep in mind this list is the top 60 most popular gaming tags. Just because these are the most popular gaming tags for Instagram, does not mean that they are perfect for you. Each gaming Instagram account is different and you should always try to be different from the other Instagram gaming accounts. These tags should be used as ideas or to fill in a few spots when you have run out of ideas for your own tags.

Top Gaming Hashtags Posts on Instagram

Over 30 million posts are currently using the hashtag #gaming and over 1,400 posts use #gaming every hour.  

(So happy to see our boy Keanu up there🤣)

Pick and choose a few gaming tags for Instagram from the list above and then add some of your own hashtags in the mix, which are related to what you are posting.

What tags should I use for my Instagram gaming posts?

Using the most popular tags is alright for getting a short burst of exposure, but your gaming post will easily get swallowed up by the vast amount of other posts using the exact same tags. 

You can get more defined and targeted gaming tags for Instagram by asking yourself these 4 questions:

1. What are you playing your game on?

If you play on Xbox, you could use some xbox hashtags for Instagram posts. If you play on Playstation, then use playstation hashtags. If you use PC guess what you do? Use PC gaming hashtags. Some hashtag examples:

Xbox hashtags

#xbox #xboxgamer #xboxgames #xboxgame #xboxonegame #xboxone #xboxonex #xboxonegamer 

Playstation hashtags

#playstation #ps4 #ps4gamer #playstationgamer #playstationgaming #ps #ps4gaming #playstation4game

PC hashtags

#pc #pcgamer #pcgamers #gamingpc #pcgaming #laptop #pcmasterrace #pcsetup #pcgame #pcgames 

2. What game are you playing?

We have seen a huge amount of Fortnite and Apex videos in our feeds, so this will help narrow down your tags.

Fortnite Instagram Hashtags

#fortnite #fortnitememes #fortniteclips #fortnitebr #fortnitebattleroyale #fortniteleaks #fortnitecommunity #battleroyale #fortniteps #fortnitegameplay #fortnitenews #fortnitewin #fortnitesolo #fortniteduo #fortniteclip

Apex Legends Instagram Hashtags

#apexlegends #apex #battleroyale #apexlegendsmemes #apexlegendsclips #apexclips #playapex #apexlegendsxbox #apexmemes #apexlegendsgame #apexlegendsps #apexlegendscommunity #apexcaptures #apexlegendspc  #apexlegend

3. Are you streaming?

If you are streaming on Twitch, Mixer or Youtube you can add tags for that too!

#twitch #streamer #youtube #mixer #twitchstreamer #stream #twitchtv #twitchaffiliate  #streaming #twitchstream #livestream #supportsmallstreamers #youtuber #twitchgamer #twitchclips #instagaming #fortnitestreamer #steam #twitchgaming 

4. What other extras are you using?

Still low on ideas for gaming tags for Instagram? You can add any other equipment or devices you are using as well!

#gamingmouse #gamingchair #gamingkeyboard #elgato #playstationcontroller #xboxcontroller #customcontroller 

Example of 30 gaming hashtags to use on Instagram

Let's say you are playing Fortnite, on Xbox, sitting in your gaming chair and you are a streamer on Twitch. Then you could use these Instagram gaming tags as an example:

#progamingcrew #gaming #gamer #xbox #videogames #game #fortnite #fortnitememes #fortniteclips #fortnitebr #fortnitebattleroyale #fortniteleaks #fortnitecommunity #battleroyale #fortniteps #fortnitegameplay #fortnitenews #fortniteclip #twitchstreamer #streamer #twitchtv #twitchaffiliate #streaming #twitchstream #livestream #supportsmallstreamers #twitchgamer #instagaming #fortnitestreamer #twitchgaming #gamingchair

Other tips for using gaming tags on Instagram

  • Don't use the same tags over and over, because Instagram will notice that you are a boring Instagram gaming account that recycles hashtags and you will get less reach every time.
  • Do not use tags that are unrelated to your tag. If enough people report your post for being spam, you will see a decline in engagement.
  • Always change up your tags to see which ones work the best for your page.
  • Use different variations of tags so people don't miss out on your post. Eg #fortnitewin & #fortnitewins
  • Tag your friends in the caption as well, they'll get a notification and will come and give you a like (hopefully)
  • You can have up to a maximum of 30 tags.
  • Tag US! #ProGamingCrew we'll show you some love if it comes across our feeds 😊

Hopefully that has helped you guys get some ideas of what hashtags to use for your Instagram gaming accounts.

Will I get millions of views if I use these tags?

Just because you are using these gaming related hashtags on Instagram now, doesn't mean that you will become an internet sensation over night. For example, we have reached out to small accounts that were getting 1-10 likes per post and then after they used the tags they suggested they were averaging about 30-40. It all depends on your content and your target audience.

Hashtags used in your gaming posts will definitely have an effect. It is not the only solution to getting more likes and views on your Instagram, but it is a good start. 

Remember, it takes time. A lot of time. You won't make it in a day, week or even a month. Majority of gamers we are associated with have been working hard for months and even years to get to where they are. Just keep grinding every day and you'll see results, as long as you don't give up.

We will cover more ways in the future to help grow your gaming page organically. No buying followers, no bots and no shout out for shout out nonsense. Most of the quick ways to get likes will hurt your account in the long term. We will be interviewing other successful gamers on what has worked for them and what hasn't and we will write up summaries for everyone to learn and grow from in the future.

That's all for now,

Keep it real. 

✌️💯💪

    this is just a suggestion but i think you guys should sell pc peripheral. i think you guys should do this because i think that you guys make good looking products for other platform and i mostly play on pc and i would love to see some customization to my pc. Selling keycaps for a start wouldnt be too bad tbh and this might increase you guy’s popularity and yh. Please add this because i would reallu love to see you guy’s idea on gaming
