Fortnite has a huge fanbase because of its highly competitive skill-based scenario. Even after four years of release, it is very fun to play and regular updates make it more entertaining. Skins in Fortnite play a more important role than it seems.

Most users like to show off among others through in-game skins. It is mainly because they help in distinguishing the difference between a newbie and a pro player. Thus, Epic Games recently organized a new Gamora Cup for users with a high skill-set to get their hands on free Gamora skin. Here’s everything you need to know about the new tournament.
