Fortnite Reload Cups: Format, dates, and how to compete

Fortnite Reload remains one of the best additions to the game. It drops players into a familiar Chapter 1 setting with a robust loot pool, respawns enabled, and an overall enjoyable experience. Given the success of this game mode, Epic Games has announced Fortnite Reload Cups for players looking to scratch their competitive itch while playing this popular playlist. Here is everything you need to know about Reload Cups in Fortnite.

Fortnite Reload Cups: Format, dates, and scoring system

In the Fortnite Reload Cups, you have two selections: one for conventional Battle Royale and another for Zero Build. No matter what you pick, these competitions are exclusive to Squads, which means you can only participate with a complete team of four players. These events run for two hours, and during that time, a maximum of seven games will be played. Similar to other Fortnite tournaments, your team’s score is determined by the number of eliminations and placements.

During the testing phase of Reload Cups by Epic Games, no cash prizes are awarded in these competitions. If these events prove successful, though, Epic might reintroduce them later with money prizes.
