Apex Legends has remained popular years after its release. In fact, it has gained popularity over the years. Here is how many people currently play Apex Legends.
Thanks to its continued new content, colorful legends, and fast-paced gunplay, Apex Legends has continued to be a top battle royale with a loyal following. Since it came out in February of 2019, Apex Legends has boasted over 130 million players.
How many are playing right now?
Apex Legends is a top game in 2024. According to Steam Charts, the game is the fourth-most played following PUBG, Dota 2, and Counter-Strike 2. The numbers on Nintendo Switch are not as known but this would put the player count even higher despite abysmal ratings on that console.
In January, the peak player count reached over 344,000 and the average player count was 146,000. This actually went up even higher in February, reaching a peak of 469,000 and an average of 185,000. In March, it was around the same, with 463,000 peak players and an average of 189,000.
| March 2024 | 189,259 | 3597 | +1.92% | 463,973 |
| February 2024 | 185,694 | 39529 | +27.02% | 469,463 |
| January 2024 | 146,198 | 1750 | +1.19% | 344,655 |
For April, or the last 30 days, there was an average player count of 188,720 and peak players reaching 463,965. This shows a pretty steady player count this past year. And it probably won’t be slowing down any time soon.
This number is unfortunately not known. We only know how many people play Apex Legends on PC right now.
