R30,000 Mythic Royale for Fortnite announced

The #MythicRoyale Fortnite tournament series has been announced. Brought to life by ACGL, MSI, Redragon and Sparkfox, there is R30,000 cash up for grabs in the first season.

Season one starts from today (3 February) and runs until 27 June. Over the course of the season, Fortnite players on all platforms can compete weekly in tournaments and matchfinders to secure a spot in the monthly custom lobby finale. Competitors need to finish in the top 60 of the ranking leaderboard at the completion of each month’s cycle to secure a finale slot. This is achieved by playing for Elo in all Fortnite competitions on the ACGL site.

The monthly finales will rotate Solos, Duos, and Squads over the course of the first season, and be played on the last Saturday of each month. The monthly finale event will be streamed live via the ACGL YouTube channel.

The Mythic Royale monthly finales will be played on the following dates:

• Solo: 29 February
• Duo: 28 March
• Squad: 25 April
• Solo: 30 May
• Duo: 27 June

How Mythic Royale works

The announcement breaks down the process as follows (which suggests you play as you used to, but with a potential monthly reward waiting):

• Register your interest for the monthly finale
• Sign up and compete in the regular Fortnite cups to earn Elo
• Use the Fortnite matchfinders to secure additional Elo for your ranking
• Finish top 60 in the leaderboard
• Compete in the finale and… win.
