The game with the current record for most concurrent players is the battle royale shooter "Fortnite". Developed by Epic Games and released in 2017, Fortnite has become a global phenomenon, with an estimated 200 million players worldwide.

The game's success is largely due to its free-to-play model, as well as its creative and innovative gameplay. Players take part in a "Battle Royale" game mode, in which up to 100 players are pitted against each other on a large, ever-shrinking map. The last player or team standing is declared the winner.

Fortnite's record for most concurrent players was set on March 15th, 2018, when 8.3 million players were logged in at the same time. This record was broken again in February 2019 when 10.7 million players were playing the game concurrently.

The success of Fortnite has been so great that it has spawned its own competitive scene, with professional players competing in tournaments for large prizes. The game has also enjoyed cross-promotional collaborations with major companies such as Marvel and Star Wars.

It is no surprise that Fortnite has become a phenomenon and that it currently holds the record for most concurrent players. With its innovative gameplay and free-to-play model, it is sure to remain a popular game for years to come.
