Apex Legends, made by Respawn Entertainment and EA, gained 10 million players in the first 72 hours after it launched on Feb. 4. Ninja reportedly tweeted about Apex Legends on Feb. 5 and streamed himself to his more than 13 million followers on Twitch. He got paid about $1 for the promotion, Reuters said, citing an anonymous source.

This isn't Ninja's first time making millions streaming games online. He raked in nearly $10 million last year playing Fortnite.
