In December 2023, Fortnite’s console playtime surpassed the combined playtime of several popular games, including Call of Duty, EA Sports FC 24, Grand Theft Auto V, and Roblox. This impressive feat is a testament to the game’s enduring popularity and the dedication of its fanbase.
Fortnite’s total console playtime in December 2023 reached over 1.6 billion hours, a 9% increase from the previous month. This growth can be attributed to the game’s engaging content and the introduction of new game modes, such as the open-world mode and the collaboration with LEGO.
The game’s success in December 2023 not only solidified its position as a cultural phenomenon but also helped Epic Games become the leading publisher by monthly active users across Xbox and PlayStation, surpassing industry giants like EA, Ubisoft, and Activision.
While it’s expected that some of the new or returning players may lose interest over time, Epic Games has plans to release another OG season in 2024, which could lead to another surge in players. This, combined with the potential for more games like Lego Fortnite to be added to the platform, suggests that the game’s popularity may continue to grow throughout the year.
