What is the current number of gamers playing Apex Legends in Season 21?

Apex Legends Season 21, Upheaval was just released a couple of weeks ago and most of the servers are packed with players. As the player count usually skyrockets at the beginning of each season, players will get a better idea about the concurrent players.

At the beginning of Season 21, the player count was around 400K which jumped up to 450K after a couple of days. While the count seems to go down as the season continues, Season 21 can be an exception as it is one of the anticipated seasons because of its release with a brand-new Skirmisher Legend, Alter, and the reprised Broken Moon.

While only two weeks have passed since the season’s release, there are a total of 208K players enjoying the game at the time of writing. As the title is on Steam, you can use the third-party website, StreamDB to track the concurrent players.

According to SteamDB, the player count skyrocketed to a whopping 625K when Season 16, Revelry launched with the Nemesis Burst AR, which still holds the podium.

The player count also went down when the developers introduced the new Ranked system in season 19, which cost Respawn Entertainment a significant amount of players. This drop compelled the developers to revert to the old Ranked system with rank-based matchmaking to bring back the players.
