There has been some discussion within the community about just how successfulFortnite’s Galactic Battle mini-season has been. While many fans of the iconic franchise have been enthusiastic about the mini-season, it would seem that the numbers tell a different story. According to various reports,Fortnitehit its lowest player count in the last two yearsduring the month of May. Some people believe this could be due to the collaboration’s lack of success, but it would seem that the game’s player count has been steadily declining over the course of 2025. It’s likely Epic Games is hoping to reinvigorate the community with the launch of Chapter 6 Season 3 in the near future. Despite a few hiccups, many fans are feeling optimistic about the future ofFortnite.
