Epic Games Free Fortnite Cup Announcement and Details:

The Free Fortnite Cup is going to be a huge event in Fortnite's history. There are in-game rewards for participating in the event but also giveaways in which Epic Games will be giving away 1,200 pieces of gaming hardware (phones, consoles, and PC’s). This event is clearly a jab to Apple's ban on Fortnite and users who are participating in the event will also get skin in the game that is showing a suited up Apple who looks more like a villain. Also, Epic Games are calling players participating in the Free Fortnite Cup "Apple Eaters" which is interesting, to say the least. To participate in the Free Fortnite cup tournament players have to follow the steps given below.
