Sensor Tower: Fortnite surpasses $50 million on iOS as Season 4 rakes in cash

Fortnite is in the middle of one of the most successful game updates of all time. Epic Games launched Season 4 of content for its battle royale shooter on May 1. That came after weeks of teases and conspiracy theories from everyone on YouTube, Reddit, and even my local Garlic Jim’s Pizzeria. That anticipation and excitement has now turned into spending, and Fortnite on iOS just crossed $50 million in total revenues driven by Season 4, according to intelligence firm Sensor Tower.

It took Fortnite 30 days to get to $25 million on iOS. It has now doubled that total in the last two weeks. Sensor Tower tracks behavior of millions of players to estimate downloads and spending on Android and iOS, and it saw a huge jump in activity for Fortnite alongside the release of Season 4.
