    Click on Fortnite you spud lol.

    There is no way to get live player counts from these games on these platforms.

    Also seems like you vastly underestimate Fortnite’s player count. You think it doesn’t even have 15 million weekly players? Oh do I have some bad news for you lol

      The daily peak is the largest number of concurrent players you dummy, not how many played over the entire day. And there are plenty of ways to get live player counts, it requires you connect to a server to play.

      You don’t have bad news for me, you can’t even read stats never mind find them.

        Connecting to a server to play doesn’t tell you how many people are connected to that server 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

        That site can’t even get the same numbers as steam tracker ffs. It’s just hopes and dreams. They literally say on the site that it’s estimated.

          You query the server, genius. Genuinely worrying you’re this tech illiterate.

          Anyway, what was your bad news, or could you not find any?

            You think you can just “query the server” of an online game and get the total number of players?

            Are you serious? Do you think that all game servers have an API with zero authentication that just returns the total number of players currently playing the game?

            And you have the nerve to say I’m “tech illiterate” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

            The bad news for you: Fortnite still gets over 30 million unique players a day lol
