SuperData Arcade has shared its monthly report, claiming that Fortnite has broken another record by generating $296 million in April across all platforms.

Do you remember what gaming was like before Fortnite entered the gaming space? One of the biggest arguments was about loot boxes. Now we have conversations about crossovers, battle passes, and community outreach.
Idk. Loot boxes did disappear and battle passes and in game purchases are all cosmetic. We get free weapons and maps post launch, any gameplay affecting content. I could care less about all the cosmetics.
I absolutely hated the days where weapons were locked behind a less than 1% chance lootbox pull where it'd take 5+ hours to have enough tokens to do a single pull and lazy remastered/remake maps cost you $15 each wave or $50 for the season pass that you didn't know what you'd get and these maps were only available to those that bought it so you get a smaller pool of players match with.
Call of duty can simply not copy the bad aspects of Fortnite? Or is that too out of this world? Like COD, a realistic shooter-just HAD to have Nicki Minaj running around? Or super heroes?
I prefer the battle passes with free maps than the $50 season pass that divided the community. I definitely feel that Fortnite had some influence on CoD having loot boxes with Blackout being introduced in 2018 with Black Ops 4.
Actually Fortnite bullshit ruined Unreal Tournament. Epic are sellouts and I will never have that shitty store on my PC, fuck them and that shit bag Tim Sweeney. At least the community keeps the games alive, I still play UT2004.

Wow, it’s so crazy how a Free to play MP game done right can generate so much revenue in a single month and it’s been ongoing, it was well over $200 million in march too. It’ll only get bigger when they release on android and if the rumoured switch version is true.
MP games kicking ass
Now we see why so many devs are trying their hand at making a successful MP game.
The money it generates lasts months even years.
MP/GaaS is definitely here to stay.
Why gamers are willing to pump hundreds or thousands for cosmetics into one game is beyond me. But congrats to epic who managed to make a great game and take use of those who don't mind spending a fortune for mt.
My kids just split the cost of the PvE starter pack. $20 each, coupled with the 20% off from live.playstation.com and a whopping buck fitty from me.
The kid friendly gameplay, graphics, polish and free entry point made a good case. Something to party up with their friends down the street. Free and PG was key.
