[2026] Heat Index Ranking ~ Tencent

[2025] Heat Index Ranking ~ Tencent

This list will only regroup dramas that started airing in 2025.

So what is Tencent's heat index ? It's a measure created by Tencent in 2022 to define the popularity of their dramas. The way it is calculated is not really clear and is proper for the company. So, we can't compare it with other companies' heat index.

Signification of Tencent heat index (from my interpretation) :

A drama has some popularity when the index reaches 20 000.
A drama that reaches 28 000 is well known and really popular.
A drama that reached 30k can be considered a super popular and successful drama (top drama from the platform).
30k is not the limit and the score can be higher

The comparison between dramas of the same company is not really significant. Depending on the actors, the IP's popularity, the drama's budget, etc..., the score's meaning can differ greatly. For a high-budget drama with popular actors and ip, reaching 25 000 is average. However, for a low budget with no, so well-known actors and not-so-popular ip, reaching 25 000 shows that the drama is a success.

Highest Heat Index ranking : (total of dramas over 30k till 2025 -> 22)

Joy of Life S2 (2024) - 34 389
Dream of Splendor (2022) - 33 520
Lost You Forever S1 (2023) - 33 144
Love Like Galaxy (2022) - 33 142
Sword Snow Stride (2022) - 32 872
