Most players in an online FPS battle

The most players in an online FPS battle is 1,530, achieved on 5 November 2022 in PlanetSide 2 (USA). The peak was hit on the Amerish map and Emerald server, when 1530 players were recorded as online. The enormous virtual showdown was sparked by a call to arms by PlanetSide 2 developer Daybreak (USA), which had asked players to log on in an attempt to break the existing record of 1158 players at once in 2015. In a tweet, Daybreak confirmed it would give all participants a special in-game title, adding: "Thank you for the madness."
