You must know, stock Electronic Arts or better known EA dropped drastically due to sales of Battlefield V which was considered a total failure. In fact, sales of the Battlefield V game made 14% of EA’s stock decline. But, now with the presence of Apex Legends, they can breathe a sigh of relief. Apex Legends itself is a recent battle royale game.
On the first day of its release, in just 8 hours, Apex Legends has managed to have 1 million players. Then, 1 day of release, Apex Legends has more than 2.5 million players. And finally, on the third day of release, Apex Legends already has 10 million players. Of course this is a new history for the Battle Royale game. It will probably beat the Fortnite and PUBG hype.
Well, as reported by Seeking Alpha, the success of Apex Legends seems to be ogled by many investors. Increase the stake by $98.09 as of this writing or about 16%. A best upgrade they’ve had since October 2018 before Battlefield V was released. Its fiscal year ends at the end of March.
And this can make them realize how profitable the battle royale genre is this year. Moreover, the game made by Respawn Entertainment will release its battle pass business model next month. You can play Apex Legends on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One platforms. And of course it’s free to play, not only that, the specifications required are quite light.
