Follow Us
Epic Games suffered a minor setback when both Apple and Google removed Fortnite from their application stores. However, that hasn’t slowed Epic down from conducting an online tournament.
With the Fortnite Champion Series set to conclude this weekend, there is more coming soon enough. Epic has announced that a new tournament called ‘Raise the Cup’ will take place on the 18th of this month.
The winner is set to unlock the ‘Raise the Cup’ emote before it’s available for purchase at a later date. Liverpool were the winners of the English Premier League and the tournament points to a direct relationship between the two. However, Liverpool has not sponsored, endorsed, or administered this tournament.
