Don’t have a date Valentine’s Day? Plan on staying home, avoiding all the fuss and playing some games? Well, there’s a local Fortnite Lonely Hearts cup happening on 14 February, and of course, it is a solo cup (well played!). Hosted by ACGL, the Fortnite Lonely Hearts solo cup doesn’t have a cash prize, but everyone is still a winner.

You can head on over to the ACGL website to sign up for this cup. While there isn’t a cash prize, all participates will receive a Fortnite Valentines Bear Avatar once check-in is completed. At the time of writing, there are 20 participants registered already. It is important to note that no ELO will be awarded for the tournament. The Fortnite Lonely Hearts solo cup is open only to players who currently reside in a sub-Saharan African country.

The signup deadline for the Fortnite Lonely Hearts cup is at 18:00 SAST on 14 February. Players need to do a check-in 18:00 to 18:55 on the day and the cup kicks off at 19:00 sharp.
