Only a couple of days after Fortnite Season X began, Epic Games announced the addition of the Fortnite Champion Series<\/a> as an expansion to the game’s competitive scene. <\/p>\n

While not a lot was revealed at first, the developers have since unveiled more details about the tournament, including rules, format, qualification process, and the size of the prize pool.<\/p>\n

The Fortnite Champion Series kicks off on Saturday, August 17 with a three-round Trios event, following which there will be four more events in each of the following four weeks.<\/p>\n

The FNCS will use a similar format to one we saw at the Fortnite World Cup Online Open, meaning that after each weekend event, the top teams from each region will receive a ticket for the Fortnite Season X Finals.<\/p>\n

Epic has also implemented a new way for competitors to qualify, offering their loyal player-base an additional road to the Fortnite esports<\/a> scene.<\/p>\n

Teams that will not advance to finals via weekend regional events can now earn invites based on their Series Points, which will be awarded to them each weekend based on their final placement in the events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
