Apex Legends<\/em>, the latest battle royale game on the market, has hit the ground running this past week with an impressive amount of players picking up the title around the world\u2014 but how does its player count hold up to the battle royale juggernaut, Fortnite: Battle Royale?<\/em><\/p>
Apex Legends<\/em> has reached an impressive 50 million players<\/a> worldwide in just under a month. But that doesn’t really come close to the dominant amount of players that Fortnite <\/em>has achieved.<\/p>
As of November last year, when Epic Games last confirmed how many players it had, Fortnite<\/em> had over 200 million registered players<\/a> throughout all systems, including mobile and Nintendo Switch which Apex Legends<\/em> is not on at the time of writing.<\/p>
On top of that, Fortnite<\/em> reportedly<\/a> had over 8 million concurrent people playing the title at that time, four times more than Apex Legends’<\/em> two million mark, which it hit yesterday.<\/p>
