Epic v. Google: everything we learned in Fortnite court
See all Stories
When Fortnite was booted off the iPhone, its revenue tanked, we just saw in a graph— but after Google removed it from Google Play, we see its Android monthly revenue went from roughly $1M to $2.2M to a range of more like $0.5M to $1.75M during peaks. (I say “roughly” and “like” because the data points weren’t labeled but appeared between lines that represented every half million in revenue).
That was measured between April 2020 and February 2021, according to the graph.
We also saw a slide suggesting most Fortnite players bought their V-Bucks elsewhere: between April and August 2020, only 2.8 percent of US users purchased any at all from Google Play, with 40.3 percent opting for other billing systems and 56.8 percent purchasing none at all.
