(CNN) Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has created his own Twitch account, but you probably won't catch him streaming "Fortnite" or "Overwatch" anytime soon.

The 2020 presidential hopeful already has 14,158 followers on the live streaming platform popular with gamers, not a bad following considering the account was created Tuesday.

He has not yet released any content on the site.

"This campaign is about bring new people into the political process," Sanders' digital communications director, Josh Miller-Lewis, said.
