Fortnite reached peak of active players despite the success of Apex Legends.

Epic Games confirmed that Fortnite: Battle Royale, an installment that has managed to hold its own in the Battle Royale world, reached a peak of 7.6 million players on February 16.

That's right, if you think this title is lagging behind Apex Legends, a game that came out suddenly and had a devastating audience on Twitch,

I'm afraid to tell you that things are not like that, since the figure that Fortnite: Battle Royale reached on Saturday occurred during the current version of the video game, that is, without any update or event within the game.

The record Epic Games records occurred after Marshmello's concert in Fortnite: Battle Royale, an event that gathered 10.7 million players,

And as you can see, the difference between the number of players on February 16 and the concert at the beginning of the month is not abysmal,

which shows that at no time have players stopped stopping by the Battle Royale.

The battle for the reign of Battle Royale is not over yet.

This news fits perfectly with the situation of success that Battle Royale have, since most of the content you can find on digital streaming services like Twitch or YouTube is related to them.

An example of the latter is the 8.2 million hours viewed that Apex Legends reached the previous week on Twitch or Nintendo's recent title, Tetris 99,

which was fixed in a good position on the same platform. On the other hand Fortnite: Battle Royale continues to lead YouTube.

It seems that Battle Royale is here to stay and the amount of viewers and active players in them speak for themselves.

Do you think Fortnite: Battle Royale will drop its player count someday, being that you can play it basically anywhere you want? Tell us in the comment box.
