Electronic Arts said 50 million players have signed up for its Apex Legends video game in the title’s first month, according to Bloomberg. The company claims that this is a further evidence that the free game is tough competition for Epic Games’s Fortnite.
EA tweeted thanks to players for the quick ascent to 50 million. Fortnite, also free in its popular battle-royale format, took four months to reach 40 million players and now has a registered base of more than 200 million.
Fortnite remains a global phenomenon, but its revenue is slowing as the game ages and competition increases. A report last month from industry tracker SuperData found that Fortnite’s revenue fell 48 percent month-over-month in January, giving a boost to EA’s shares.
