Videogames generated a massive $120.1 billion revenue overall in 2019. Fortnite netted $1.8 billion of that hoard. ## [](#at-the-top-but)At the top … BUT This places Fortnite at the top of Superdata’s charts for the second year in a row. However, it’s also a pretty significant dip from the game’s $2.4 billion earnings from back in 2018. Superdata themselved did not comment on the drop in revenue. But they did go on to explain that various Fortnite collaborations with Star Wars and for example The Avengers helped to prop it up, In any case, Fortnite will probably remain on top of the most played, most earning block for quite awhile longer.
