It won’t be long until the Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 FNCS Champions are crowned. Here’s everything you need to know about Surge Week.

FNCS Qualifier 3 wrapped up on Sunday with Kami and Setty coming out on top in EU, while Eomzo and Rise did the business in NAE. 40 teams on each region now have a place in Finals, so it’s time to find out who gets those last few spots.

FNCS CH4S1 Surge Week takes place on Saturday, February 25. Check your local start time here.

What Is Surge Week?

Surge Week is essentially a rebranding of the popular Reboot Round, previously part of FNCS Semi-Finals or Heats. Basically, this is the last chance to qualify for Finals.

The top 40 duos on each region’s Series Points Leaderboard have already progressed to Finals. Teams 41st-91st on the Series Points Leaderboard will play in Major 1 Surge Week.

Surge Week consists of five matches, with the winner of each match earning a place in Finals. At the end of the session, the top 5 teams on the Surge Week Leaderboard who did not get a Victory Royale will also qualify.
