Fortnite’s finally returning with a fully-fledged competitive agenda. After the 2019 Fortnite World Cup, the game’s competitive scene was in limbo due to the COVID-19 outbreak. With no LAN events in sight, many pros transitioned into streaming, and the remaining competitors participated in online events.
Epic is looking to reignite the glory days of Fortnite’s pro scene with FNCS Majors. Throughout 2023, there will be three FNCS Majors, each with three weeks of action. The best-performing players will earn a spot in the Fortnite Champion Series Global Championship in Denmark, which will crown the next Fortnite World Champion, the first after Bugha.
Considering it has been almost three years since the last Fortnite event of this caliber, FNCS Majors will be on the radar of every fan.
