Apex Legends player count struggles as ‘boring’ season 17 trudges on

Apex Legends hit new highs at the beginning of season 16, breaking records with the highest player count and peaks in its four year lifetime, but the community reception to season 17 has been lukewarm, with many additions and changes failing to captivate and motivate players like before.

According to Steam Charts, the daily peak player count today reached the lowest point in Season 17, despite being only one month in, a third of the way through the entire season. In comparison to Season 16, the low daily player peak was recorded at the end of the season, raising many questions about Respawn’s vision for Apex’s future, with the majority of their seasonal changes receiving negative attention.
