Qualifiers are already underway but there’s still a chance to enter your Trio and win big at the Chipotle Challenger Series.

The Chipotle Challenger Series featuring Fortnite will see top pros, streamers and celebrities competing for a share of a $50,000 total prize pool and a year’s supply of free burritos. Sure, it will be awesome to watch, but If you live in North America you could even take part!

Qualifiers

The first round of open qualifiers has concluded, but there’s still room for eight more trios at the finals. You can head to the Chipotle Challenger Series Battlefly page to register for one of the slots below:

  • (NA East) Thursday, September 24 at 6pm EST / 3pm PDT

  • (NA West) Thursday, September 24 at 9pm EST / 6pm PDT

Although the tournament is cross platform, teams must have at least one PC player as their party leader. This is because you will need to use the Mayhem app to track your score.

Trios will play in custom lobbies, completing six games in a three-hour period. Points are awarded for placement and eliminations, with the top four teams from each qualifier going through to the finals.

Finale

Thursday, October 1 at 3pm EST / 12pm PDT / 9pm CEST

Tune in at twitch.tv/chipotle to catch the grand finale! Here, the 16 qualified trios and 17 teams of guests will face off in an Epic five game showdown.
