The fact that it’s #5 on steams all time concurrent player records is insane. I also had a look at who the top spot was and I do not remember PUBG having that many players.

It’s easy to forget since the fortnite takeover but pubg was an inescapable juggernaut for a few months. A lot of fortnite’s early success came from BR fans wanting a change from pubg with something that had shorter, more action packed games.

Also, much like CS, it’s huge in eastern europe.

I’d say the majority of its success came from console only players wanting to play a battle royale on console. Fortnite was the first well made battle royale on consoles.
