Battle royale game Fortnite has hosted several high-profile in-game events which have drawn millions of players worldwide. The Galactus event, which concluded Fortnite's Marvel-themed season 4 of chapter 2, drew 15.3 million concurrent players. The company also stated that 3.4 million viewers watched the event on YouTube Gaming and Twitch. This makes the Galactus battle the game's most popular live event, pushing Travis Scott's April 2020 in-game concert from the top spot.
