Seeing numbers like this, it’s easy to see why Stunlock Studios wanted a piece of the market, and with Battlerite at the time proving to be a niche success and enjoying the benefits of a dedicated and moderately sized community with decent player numbers, creating a second title (Battlerite Royale) was a reasonably safe gamble on paper, diversifying development resources in an effort to secure a new demographic. Apex Legends: Over 100 million players and earned well over 1 billion USD since its launch in 2019.Call of Duty Warzone/Modern Warfare: Over 100 million players and earned 1.9billion USD in 2020 alone.PlayerUnknown Battlegrounds Mobile: Over 34 million players and earned over 5 billion in revenue.Fortnite Battle Royale: Over 400 million users, earned over 9 billion USD in first 2 years, and was a major player in Epic Games 5.1 billion gross revenue in 2020.

While this outcome was always a possibility for Battlerite, it was hastened by the development and launch of Battlerite Royale. Stunlock Studios announced on the 3rd of July 2019 that Battlerite would be receiving no content for the foreseeable future, stating that declining player numbers and revenue had resulted in Battlerite and Battlerite Royale becoming unsustainable forcing the studio to work on other titles to put bread on the table.
