Late last week and throughout the weekend Epic Games hosted a Travis Scott concert in Fortnite. The event, dubbed Astronomical, attracted a record-breaking 12.3 million players during its first showing. Astronomical?s four encore events greatly built upon this momentum. In total, the in-game concert showings drew in an impressive 27.7 million unique viewers. On top of that, these millions of players participated in the event no less than 45.8 million times. Talk about a game-changer.
Epic Games shared the numbers in a recent Twitter post, while additionally thanking fans for their participation. Check below to see the the tweet from Fortnite?s page:
