Apex Legends’ season 15 celebrates new player peak—but struggles to compete with seasons past
Usually, the high point of a season for Apex Legends in terms of concurrent player count is the very first day. That’s when the most players are logged on to try out the new character and any other new content that inevitably comes with a major seasonal update.
That’s not the case for season 15, however, since Steam records indicate that the highest concurrent player mark for Eclipse occurred yesterday at the launch of the Wintertide event. The Steam numbers indicate that more than 412,000 players were on Apex yesterday, beating out the first day of the season, which peaked at 403,517 players, according to Apex Legends Status.
