The Winter Royale was announced following changes Epic Games made to its in-game tournament matchmaking and other improvements meant improve the player experience. This system will then be used next year for the Fortnite World Cup.

Open to anyone, Epic Games explain that these Solo test events will consist of two parts, the Winter Royale Qualifiers and the Winter Royale Finals. For now, the regions for the qualifiers and finals are North America and Europe and they intend to expand to other regions next year based on their evaluation of this tournament.

So if you are in these regions, try your luck and who knows? You might hit it big time as explained by Epic Games:

There will be several chances for anyone to try and get a high score during the Winter Royale Qualifier days. The highest score you achieve during any event session will be the one that counts, so be sure to give it your all! As part of our ongoing competitive tests to prepare for the Fortnite World Cup, Winter Royale will use the same game settings as the currently available Pop-Up Cup.

The qualifiers are fast coming up so better be ready in 2 days’ time to battle it out:
