How these estimates are made

Apex Legends

We estimate that about 1,100,000 people play Apex Legends on a typical day (most likely between 810,000 and 1,600,000), based on data from Nov 8, 2026. Around 17,000,000 accounts (between 13,000,000 and 22,000,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.
