Epic Games have been teasing the FNCS All-Star Showdown for a long time now, but we finally know all the juicy details. The Fortnite competitive team explained everything in their latest blog post.
The event pits some of your favorite pros against each other in a series of skills tests, a special 3 vs 3 game mode, and finally culminates in a high-stakes Battle Royales Solos tournament. All of the action will be broadcast live on Twitch, where fans can secure exclusive cosmetic loot drops.
Many of the best players in the world have already been invited to take part, however there’s still a few spaces left. Here’s how to earn your spot in the FNCS All-Star Solo Championship…
Solo All-Star Play In
If you weren’t lucky enough to receive an invite, this is your chance to participate. The Solo All-Star Play In provides an open qualification route straight into that Championship lobby.
The Play In occurs across four rounds, running from June 18-20. You’ll need to be in Champion division in Arena to enter, and there’s just ten places up for grabs in each region.
We've been teasing it since the beginning of the year, but we're finally ready to share all the details with you.
