Fortnite Champion Series Chapter 2 Season 2: Duos & Dates

It may have taken a while but on March 9, Epic Games announced the Fortnite Champion Series will finally be making its debut in Season 2.

The format this season will be Duos, so players will need to grab their trusty partner and get to grinding.

A major change they are making this time is PC players will be separated from console and mobile players.

There has been a lot of criticism over the way aim assist is being handled in aim assist, and this looks like a way Epic Games will be taking to combat that going forward in a competitive setting.

When Does FNCS Begin?

Epic Games reveals that the official tournament will kick off on March 20, but beginning March 13 and running until the 15, there will be a special training simulation that gives players a taste of what to expect.

There will be two separate tournaments tracks with one on PC while the other one will feature console and mobile players.

It's important to note that your Duo must be on the same platform group as you, meaning PC players won't be able to play with a PS4 player.

For the duration of the tournament, the top-scoring Duos players per region will be sent through to the finals. There, they'll be joined by the other top-scoring players each week and they'll battle it out to see who the best of Season 2 really is.

How to Play in the Fortnite Champion Series

The FNCS is returning for Chapter 2 – Season 2.

The tournament is open to all players, but they'll need to make sure 2-factor authentication is turned on and they'll have to reach Champion League in Arena.

There's still plenty of time to meet this threshold, so if you're wanting the chance to show off your Fortnite skills, you'll need to hop into the Arena mode and prove it.

It is worth mentioning that Epic Games announced they were delaying all tournaments as they worked to iron out performance issues found in Fortnite.

This was just several days ago, so it sounds like they have found a way to alleviate those issues, but only time will tell if it holds up once the FNCS begins.

All players have to do now is grab their partner and get to grinding. Who are you bringing with you to the finals?
