Free-to-play battle royale sensation Fortnite earned $1.8bn (£1.38bn) worldwide in 2019 – making it last year’s biggest-earning game.
It’s the second year in a row Fortnite has earned that crown – even if revenue in 2019 was down 25 per cent from the $2.4bn (£1.84bn) it raked in over 2018.
Superdata, a Nielsen company which tracks global video game spending, described this drop as a “stabilisation” following Fortnite’s stratospheric launch.
