Google has released its 2024 Year In Search Top Trending Data report, showcasing the top trending search results for the year.

Google shares this data annually, showing how Google's trending topics change year over year. Trending topics may not necessarily be the most-searched overall topics in a given year, but making the list does mean a topic (or in this case, a game) has picked up a significant amount of search interest relative to last year, which is often a sign that the topic has become culturally significant.
