Ninja would have reported $ 1 million to release Apex Legends at launch

Here is more evidence that the Royal Battle of the Royal Battle Games has begun.

Tyler Blevins, a famous player known as "Ninja", won a million dollars playing Apex Legends, according to a report from the Reuters agency released Wednesday.

Apex Legends, manufactured by Respawn Entertainment and EA, won 10 million players within 72 hours of its launch on February 4th. Ninja reportedly tweeted about Apex Legends on Feb. 5 and reportedly joined more than 13 million fans on Twitch. He was paid about $ 1 for the promotion, Reuters said, citing an anonymous source.

This is not the first time Ninja has created millions of online streaming games. He raised nearly $ 10 million last year while playing Fortnite.

Ninja did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The free royal battle game is similar to Fortnite and PUBG, which means the last player to win wins. But in Apex Legends, users can only play in teams and choose the class of characters that suits their style. Combat styles and weapon choice are also more sophisticated in Apex Legends than in the other two.

Apex Legends has attracted a lot of attention in a very short time. Earlier this month, the game had already reached 50 million players since its launch. Epic's Fortnite: Battle Royale has counted 200 million players in a year. But Apex Legends could soon catch up.
