EA confirms Apex is dying
This is the second time I believe that EA has said Apex has underperformed financially (first time was January this year). Respawn/EA continue to prove they're out of touch with the community & don't...
@BallisticMVPI am sure somewhere stats may show it being lower. We went from an average 400k masters most seasons to nearly what 1.6m now? This indicates more players. Even if you go by current masters there is 1.6 million master ranks. This is 1.6 million players while some may be alts as well this is still a very very large number of players.
That 1.6m is for 1 single rank. Imagine rookie, gold, plat, diamond, pred. This 1.6m figure is greatly increased once adding those in.
So I will not say the game is dying despite what stat some company thinks they have correct. When pure numbers are there to be seen. Not everyone uses steam.
Then lets add in big games dropping Diablo 4 being a recent one where a ton of all gaming populations shifted over to until they was bored with it or still remain there. All game releases pull players from their typical normal games.
@BallisticMVPWell this is a indicator in just ranked of how many did not leave like some assume.
Wish I had a way of seeing how many pure pub players can be added to that nearly 6.2m which im sure is a very large number as well.
@BallisticMVPFore sure def would be hard to figure out. We can only go by trackers for ranked. So without knowing full details and we are left with only ranked numbers it would be virtually impossible to know how many left or stayed. It would all be assumptions with no data left behind to show for it in the publics eyes.
So when you say 30% has left there is no true way of knowing this. Steam does give some numbers but this would not account for some who swap to ea app and such. I am just more so meaning when ranked shows 6.1m players this is not a dead game nor a dying game the season ranked alone there are plenty of players. I do not honestly care how accurate steam is. When numbers do not lie across the board.
