Fortnite has set a new milestone after attracting 14.3 million concurrent players for its Remix: The Finale virtual concert.
The event featured performances by renowned artists Snoop Dogg, Ice Spice, and Eminem and a posthumous tribute to Juice WRLD, who died in 2019.
The figure surpassed the previous record of 12.3 million concurrent players for the Travis Scott concert in 2020.
Furthermore, the Remix concert broke the records set by the Snoop Dogg & Ice Spice at Times Square event earlier this year, which was also hosted on the computer game.
“You. Showed. Up,” read a Fortnite social media post.
“More than 14 million concurrent players partied up for Remix: The Finale and more than three million estimated people streamed it online.
“This is a new Fortnite all-time record for an in-game concert – thank you!”
The concert lasted for 15 minutes and culminated with a dedication to Juice WRLD, as the world premier of his Empty Out Your Pockets song served as a finale.
Prior to that, the event included a rendition of Travis Scott’s Highest in the Room song as well as a preview of his collaboration with Kid Cudi, “The Scotts” before it was officially released hours after the concert.
