Fortnite Made Over $318 Million Just Last Month Alone
Thanks to the folks over at SuperData, we know which titles are the highest ranking revenue-wise for the month of May. League of Legends continues to dominate on PC, but Fortnite has the console crowd by a longshot. It's also not doing too shabby on the PC platform either:
Despite Fortnite's Battle Royale mode only taking 2 months to create, their product offers an incredibly immersive experience that's sole purpose is to have fun. With silly skins (come on, there was even a datamined skin of a giant tomato head) to even sillier game mechanics like the rideable rockets, the game overall is made up of tiny little pieces that make an enjoyable picture. Because of this, players can't seem to get enough. It's a charming game, one that is widely enjoyed by all age groups, making it a title that is relatable to a huge scope of gamers.
There's a care, a constant attention to detail, that Epic Games exhibits that's evident in their social media interactions, their fan interactions on Reddit, and is reflected in every weekly update. It's going to take a lot of hard work for games to dethrone this powerhouse, at least for the near future. Fortnite has more than earned its stripes and for any developer looking to challenge that, prepare to do some hefty homework!
Fortnite is now available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Nintendo Switch, and iOS devices. It is also slated for an Android release date, though we're still waiting on an official launch time. For now, we have to be content with the "coming soon" window.

Nick And here we are saying fortnite isn't a good game. The proof is in the pudding.
It's a free game. The game is 90% kids playing which ask their parents for money to buy in game content. Livestreams will be spending a lot to because they have a ton of views for this game. Games shouldn't sell IGC.

I'm not surprised, they make alot because it's free to play and everyone wants the newest skin.

That's a crazy amount of money but then again im not at all surprised as the game is doing so well. Not to mention Vbucks are so expensive smh.

And yet anytime there is maintenance their servers are down for ages xD they should really re-invest some of that to make our experience better

That's a tremendous amount of money for a FREE game. Hopefully other games can follow but I doubt it.
