Popular creators and sports stars join forces this week for an action-packed day of Fortnite competition.
With the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs set to face-off in the Super Bowl on Sunday, NFL Football fever is heading back to Fortnite. Epic Games will mark the occasion with a new Stadium-sized Creative Hub and the return of the customisable Gridiron Gang set.
Even more excitingly though, February 4 marks the finals of the second ever Twitch Rivals Streamer Bowl featuring Fortnite!
Trios comprising NFL players, Twitch streamers and top performing fans will battle it out across four matches to earn a chunk of the $1,000,000 in charity prizing. As usual, points will be awarded for both placement and eliminations, so expect some intense gameplay.
