In case you hadn't already heard, Fortnite is still doing pretty well, with Epic Game's seemingly immortal last-man-standing shooter having just passed 200 million registered users. 

As reported by Bloomberg, that's a notable 60 percent increase on the 125 million registered users Epic reported back in June, and highlights how the battle royale effort continues to build momentum.
