The qualification period for the Esports World Cup has now ended. As mentioned in several previous articles, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia will be hosting a $60 million competition between several top esports titles this summer. Fortnite will once again be a part of this exciting event, which will feature a unique prize pool. Unlike previous tournaments that focused on Battle Royale or Zero Build modes, this time the competition will take place in Creative gamemode, with custom maps designed specifically for this tournament. Over the past few weeks, many organizations have secured their spot in the finals. In this article, we will highlight all of the teams that have qualified.
DreamHack Dallas
The qualifiers began with DreamHack Dallas, featuring over 37 teams. Team Falcons, Agent Gaming, Karmine Corp, Heroic, Fnatic, and BIG led the leaderboard.
