Fortnite’s Player Count Is Way Up In Chapter 7 Season 3, And Here’s Why

Veja o que foi divulgado recentemente. After a slow start to Chapter 7 in December, Fortnite has had a significant bump in its player count since the start of Season 3 in early June.

Segundo apurado, The average number of concurrent players in Battle Royale nearly doubled month over month, going from 228,000 in May to over 433,000 in June, according to public data that was collected and aggregated by fortnite.gg . It appears as though Battle Royale's new brainrot-inspired sprite-collection gameplay is working about as well as Epic could have hoped, because that's pretty similar to the bump we saw for Fortnite's Simpsons-themed season last November, when the average player count jumped from 225,000 to 480,000. While a bit smaller, the bump in Season 3 is arguably more impressive than the one brought by the month-long Simpsons season, because this one didn't come with the help of any sort of collaboration with an ultra-famous IP.

The player count boost in Season 3 is almost certainly thanks to the addition of the collection-and-extraction mechanic with the sprite creatures, which have proven to be quite a hook for sweats and casuals alike. And the weekend Power Hours, which have offered players extra chances to find rare sprite variants, have inspired peaks in the player count that are usually reserved for live events--June 27's "gummy hour" saw nearly 1.6 million players in Battle Royale at once. While the jump in the player count for Season 3 has been nice, it's also a warning. The increased player count for Simpsons season didn't last--in fact, the player count went down when Chapter 7 started, indicating that Fortnite wasn't able to keep the new folks it had drawn in.
