The Apex Legends frenzy has broken out!
The game got off to a great start, with EA hoping the momentum will continue in the future.
It is no exaggeration to say that Apex Legends has managed to recruit 10 million players in just three days (Fortnite, also known as successful, got here in two weeks), and after another four days, that certain counter is already 25 million In the case of Fortnite, it took three months)! It’s a fact that the game is available for free - through Origin - but at the same time there’s no doubt that we haven’t seen such a rate of growth so far in a single Battle Royale category creation. Obviously, it won’t surprise anyone that EA executives and investors were quite happy to see what they saw, and after the poor sales of Battlefield V, it came out particularly well and at the right time.
The weight of Apex Legends is also well exemplified by the fact that, according to analyst firm Baird, the game will play a prominent role in the life of EA in the coming period, meaning it could be the next hen to lay golden eggs. Given the task, Fortnite may have roughly 200 million gamers behind it as of writing these lines.
