Fortnite World Cup 2020
Ever since the pandemic broke out and it became clear that various sporting tournaments and other events will be affected, speculation had been rife about the Fortnite World Cup, as well. While some fans thought that the event is too big for Fortnite to cancel and therefore it will be held online, others did not agree.
