Epic Games says that the explosive Chapter 6 finale drew in 10.5 million in-game participants. It should be of little surprise that Fortnite is still doing really well, with its new Hollywood-themed first season of Chapter 7 reportedly drawing in a peak of around 3 million concurrent players at its launch. The reported figure comes from prolific Fortnite leaker Shiina, who shared the number in an X post on Sunday. The new season, subtitled "Pacific Break," began Saturday, bringing a completely different battle royale map, along with new weapons and a battle pass. This comes off the tail end of the Chapter 6 "Zero Hour" finale, which attracted 10.5 million players in-game and over 3 million viewers through livestreaming, according to Epic Games. The publisher unironically shared the Martin Scorsese "cinema" meme in celebration of these figures.

While these figures are undoubtedly impressive for any modern online video game, Fortnite is still falling short of its own all-time records. Attractions like The Simpsons mini-season lead to boosts in player count, but even the massive Zero Hour event had a lower player-count than last year's record shattering Remix Finale, which featured the likes of Eminem and Snoop Dogg--that event pulled in 14 million concurrent players. Even still, most online games would be happy to have the numbers that Fortnite currently has. There are still plenty of reasons to jump (or surf, in the case of this season) into the battle royale, including the chance to see a long-lost chapter of Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill, though accusations of AI-generated content in Chapter 7 have also been levied against Epic.
