Fortnite is one of the biggest games on the planet, and Epic reportedly has the numbers to prove it.
The publisher announced on Tuesday that Fortnite has 125 million players, which makes it bigger than massive MOBA titles like League of Legends. Fortnite first launched in July 2017, making that 125 million player record something that occurred in less than a year. To compare, Riot boasted 100 million monthly players log into League of Legends monthly back in 2016, with 27 million of those players logging in daily.
