No Fortnite World Cup in 2021, online events are on: Epic Games
Epic
Games has announced that like this year, there will be no in-person events in
2021, including a Fortnite World Cup, as the pandemic refuses to slow down.
However,
the company will continue to organise online competitions throughout next year.
"We
will continue to provide online competitions throughout 2021 with the hopes
that physical events, in some form, can return at some point in the
future," the company said in a statement late on Friday.
Epic
Games had cancelled the 2020 edition of the Fortnite Cup in April. The first
Fortnite World Cup took place in 2019 in New York.
The Fortnite Champion Series (FNCS) will continue throughout 2021. Chapter 2-Season 5 FNCS is planned to begin from February 4.
"This
date allows plenty of time for players to adjust to the new season and give our
team more time to make adjustments before FNCS play," the Fortnite team
said.
Meanwhile,
the developer of popular battle royale game Fortnite, in partnership with
OnePlus, has announced that its India-oriented Bhangra Boogie Cup for Android
smartphones will kick off on December 6.
