What they need to do is put their games on Xbox

Or maybe diversify beyond Fornite. Eventually they were gonna start to see a leveling off of players. Also bandcamp & super awesome we’re dumb acquisitions.
It’s like they really are the mirror reflection of Unity.

these execs really be thinking the wave gonna last forever. 
at least Microsoft had a vision for Minecraft after it fell off gaming wise. They use it to teach object based programming to kids in their coding classes/suites which is great.

Fortnite has ruined their culture, they don’t have the right people anymore. Go look at their job postings all their resources are dedicated to Fortnite.

Also i think these are partly due to the pandemic boost dropping way off. A lot of these companies were a bit to over zealous with the lockdown numbers
Animal House
Superstar
why not make a sequel but what do I know 
Every wave eventually crashes. Some of that Fortnite money should have been going into the development of the next thing. Doesn’t mean get rid of Fortnite but have something ready for when all the water has been squeezed out of that rock. I also agree with @Gizmo_Duck and those pandemic boosts are wearing off. People aren’t stuck inside now, and their undivided attention and lack of options are gone.

It’s was trending down during covid. They had more than enough time to pivot or launch something new.

See interest over time on Google Trends for Fortnite - France, Past 5 years.

I'll say this; I'm not sure why they haven't taken the Fortnite assets and make other games
They threw lots of money at the epic store and probably planned to pay for it with fortnight.
