The number of players, and associated revenue, is in a completely different league from Elite Dangerous:

How Does Fortnite Make Money?
Fortnite is the most popular battle royale game worldwide, and generates huge revenues even though it is offered for free by developer, Epic Games.
And a 15 year old London teenager came second....his takings were a tad more conservative at just under $1m. He's buying his mum a house to get them out of a private rental...and no doubt a new Xbox to replace the one she chucked out of his bedroom window

Why is that then?
CQC had esport potential. UK cant do marketing.
CQC never had any esport potential, ever. To have esport potential, you would need to have a large userbase that would a) like to play and b) spectate. With a niche game genre like the one Elite is in, that is never going to happen. I mean hells, even Blizzard failed at the whole esport thing with their moba crap, and it was their game that had a mod that created the moba genre.
Hahaha, I remember the publisher (Take2?) trying to push for E-Sports with Evolve - we know how that turned out. Lol.
