Eligibility & Sign Up

Players who would like to participate in the event must be at least 13 years of age or greater, depending on where they reside. Any minor that wants to participate would have to get permission from a parent or legal guardian. Otherwise, when it comes to signing up for the tournament, there is no official way to do so; it is just done in the game.

Prizes

The Fortnite tournament offers major cash prizes for those who finish in the top 5 spots. In Europe, the 1st place winner receives a total of $23,000, while in North America, the 1st place winner receives $13,500. Ultimately, players can win a cash prize even if they land in 50th place. However, as would be expected, the amount of cash awarded dwindles to $400 or $500 depending on the country of residence.
