Epic Games, the developer of the popular battle royale game Fortnite, has added a new feature that allows players to view the live player count of all game modes. The update will now display a real-time player count for all modes, including Epic’s main modes, such as Battle Royale, Zero Build, and Team Rumble.
The feature will provide a unique insight into how many players are currently playing each mode at any given moment. The change is expected to encourage players to try different modes they may not have played before. The live player count reveals that many players still enjoy playing with building enabled.
Recently, Epic Games introduced the latest version of the UEFN (Unreal editor for Fortnite) creative tools, which merge Unreal Engine 5 advancements with Fortnite’s creative toolkit, enabling more advanced and graphically impressive creations. During the announcement, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney disclosed that Fortnite had 70 million active users, while Roblox had 250 million, and Minecraft had 100 million monthly active users.
Overall, the update to display live player counts for each mode is expected to show how many people are playing Fortnite at any given moment and encourage players to try different modes.
