Warzone on the other hand hit 50 million players in April 2020. For comparison, Apex Legends boasted '70 million players' in Oct 2019, while the original battle royale, Playerunknown's Battlegrounds, hit a 400 million player peak in June 2018, and 3.24 million concurrents in January 2018, but currently has a peak monthly players count around 886,255 for April 2020. During a presentation at the Game Developer’s Conference in March, Epic divulged Fortnite had reached a peak player concurrency of 10.8 million, a whopping 218 percent increase in activity from. Besides, only 5 of the players said that they played more than 21 hours a week. 70 of the Fortnite players in the United States play Fortnite for less than 10 hours a week. The highest number of Fortnite players active in a month was recorded in August 2018 at 78.3 million. How Many Hours Do People Play Fortnite Fortnite users spend an approximate median time of 6 to 10 hours weekly on the platform. You can sort of guesstimate things though. Because so many of these stats are cherry picked from super successful moments and not often updated it's hard to compare things directly. One thing that's harder to work out is how Fortnite stacks up against other games. Of course, people need to spend time relaxing as well as doing things that are “constructive” or “meaningful.” But when the world seems to be becoming more unstable with every passing year, it seems a shame that we spend every passing year playing more video games.So that's an increase of 100 million registered accounts in just over a year, not a number to be ashamed of. Imagine if every gamer who cared about, say, global warming or racial/gender/income inequality had campaigned for their views instead of spending all of those years shooting each other. Imagine if all (or only 50%) of that aggregated time had been spent on political participation and activism. Fortnite Statistics Currently, there are 350 million registered Fortnite players More than 80.4 million people played Fortnite on a monthly basis in 2020. Then there’s the collective opportunity cost of spending 10.4 million cumulative years playing a video game.
Maybe we could spend more time socialising in-person with other people, more time engaging in volunteer and charity work, or more time being creative, all of which have been shown by research to improve personal wellbeing. As of 2020, data shows that Minecraft has around 126 million players, but Fortnite has around 350 million 224 million more, despite being eight years. Given that we already spend on average 33 years in bed, as well as 14 years at work (not to mention our years at school), it may not be the best possible use of the remaining time to spend around three years (or more) playing video games. On a personal, developmental, and existential level, it’s arguable that most gamers may be able to find something “better” to do with their lives.
What isn’t clear is how healthy this all is. It’s clear that massive amounts of time–and money–are handed over to the video game industry. Limelight’s 2020 report also found that "binge-gaming is on the rise." Gamers worldwide reported that their average longest consecutive playing session lasted for four hours and 36 minutes, a 7% increase compared 2019.
