Fortnite hits new all-time total players record Epic GamesEpic Games announced a major milestone for Fortnite as the battle keeps on growing \u2013 and just in time for the game\u2019s live Party Royale Premiere. Through its first ten seasons, the end of the world event, and a successful launch of Chapter 2, Fortnite has amassed over 350 million registered players \u2013 and is primed to keep that number growing. The devs also announced the number of hours people have poured into Fortnite in just the month of April, coupling the impressive player count with an even more impressive number signaling the amount of retention it has on active users. In 30 days, the Fortnite community had over 3.2 billion hours cached into the Fortnite servers. Against all memers, the battle royale isn\u2019t quite dead yet. In fact, it\u2019s almost the opposite of dead. The Fortnite developers have been creating unique experiences for audiences to congregate and celebrate within the Epic Game servers, as seen in the case of the game\u2019s record-breaking Travis Scott concert. The next festival in the lineup will be on Friday, May 8 at 6 PM PDT \/ 9 PM ET when artists Dillon Francis, Steve Aoki and deadmau5 will take the Main Stage in the Party Royale Premiere. Fortnite now has over 350 million registered players! In April, players spent over 3.2 billion hours in game. \ud83d\ude4c\ud83e\udd73 Let\u2019s keep the party going with our Party Royale Premiere LIVE on May 8 at 9PM ET featuring @DillonFrancis @steveaoki @deadmau5: https:\/\/t.co\/H18c3UgBL1 pic.twitter.com\/Cgt3r7LXQO \u2014 Fortnite (@FortniteGame) May 6, 2020 While it\u2019s always worth it to make it to the live show, there will be an encore for the festivities the following day on May 9 at 11 AM PDT to 12 PM PDT \/ 2 PM to 3 PM ET. Fortnite\u2019s Party Royale will be an entire playlist unto itself that will restrict any weapons or mats, while giving players fun side attractions like the Skydive Rift, Fishsticks\u2019 Boat Race and new items to explore like the Paint Launcher. Starting with the Marshmello live concert, special releases have only transformed and evolved into epic in-game events like the Mecha-Monster fight that took over the main part of the island. Of course, the Travis Scott concert famously attracted longtime fans of the game, as well as new Ragers that had yet to log hours into that battle royale. With Epic combining the grand allure of these in-game experiences and refining the title with every update, it\u2019s only a matter of time before Fortnite will celebrate its next target accolade of 400 million players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
