Apex Legends season 2 does not convince investors, EA shares falling
92 million dollars only in the first month since the launch. 25 million players only in the first week. Number of viewers on Twitch to stack colossi like Fortnite or League of Legends.
When the Battle Royale of Respawn Games was released “a surprise” last February 4, it seemed to have really upset the video industry. An ascent as lightning and lightning was the “decline” of the title, surely complicit in the poor amount and quality of the content previewed for the first season of play.
The second season, available from last July 3, however, brought numerous and interesting changes not only to the game map, but also to the fun and solid gameplay, with a new weapon, a new hero and numerous changes to the now established goal of the game.
Despite the numerous and positive changes that have been welcomed by the community, it seems that the trend of the game is not sufficiently growing, with views on Twitch that do not exceed 45,000 spectators (well away from 100,000 active shortly after launch).
The competition in the genre Battle Royale is very high, and competing with monsters like Fortnite is definitely not easy. Moreover, it should be remembered that the report of WCCFTech, which connects the decrease of -4.6% of the Electronic Arts actions to the subtone reception of the second season of Apex Legends, does not blame only the latter, since in America last July 4 the American Independence was celebrated, with festivities that involved the weekend and surely have reduced the number of active players.
The situation therefore must continue to be monitored and you can always do so here, on KotaWorld.
