Fortnite Global Championship 2024 format and players
It’s been a tight contest at the top of the FNCS, but now we’re looking to find our championship duo and reward them well: A massive $400,000 prize is up for grabs for the champion this weekend!
The grand final is held over two days of competition on Sept. 7 and 8, with six matches of Battle Royale taking place each day. Duos score points based on team eliminations and final placement in each match; the team with the highest score after game 12 will take out the championship.
Matches seven through 12 (day two) will be scored with a 50 percent bonus, so even if a team dominates day one, it’ll still be possible for a duo to make a comeback on championship Sunday. Here are the players participating in the Fortnite Global Championship this year and how they got there.
