Steal A Brainrot reaches 24 million players across Roblox and Fortnite in single day

Steal A Brainrot has broken records across Roblox and Fortnite, attracting nearly 24 million players in a single day. The community-created title has quickly become one of the year’s standout successes.

Originally released on Roblox earlier in 2025, Steal A Brainrot combines tycoon and simulator gameplay with meme-inspired humour. Players collect and generate income from “Brainrot” characters in a party-style format that has resonated strongly with younger audiences.

Its viral appeal carried over when the game was later adapted into Fortnite Creative, bringing the concept into Epic Games’ ecosystem of user-generated content.

On September 14, the title reached new heights. The Roblox version peaked at 23.4 million daily players, while the Fortnite edition saw 542,000 concurrent users. Combined, the figures placed Steal A Brainrot alongside some of Fortnite’s most popular official modes.

The milestone was highlighted by leaker Shiina, who noted the game’s achievement across both platforms. For comparison, Fortnite’s core modes Battle Royale and Zero Build typically attract around 100,000 concurrent players during peak weekends. Steal A Brainrot has also overtaken Blitz Royale and Reload Ranked in all-time player counts, underscoring its rapid rise.

With momentum continuing to build, Steal A Brainrot may set further records in the coming weeks, reinforcing the growing significance of community content within mainstream gaming.
