Think you’ve got what it takes to rise to the top? Rank up and then test your mettle in Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix, which features not one, not two, but seven tournament series to compete in—with a combined prize pool of over $1,000,000!
Explaining Fortnite’s Ranked Modes
Eager to jump into the competition? The battle begins in Ranked modes! Here’s a quick reminder on how these work for those new to Fortnite’s competitive scene.
Fortnite’s Ranked modes give all players a rank based on their performance—the better you play, the higher your rank! A series of initial placement matches must be completed to establish your rank. At the end of a Battle Royale season, ranks are reset for all players, and placement matches must be completed again to redetermine where you sit on the ranked ladder.
Your current rank determines which tournaments you are allowed to participate in, with players ranked Gold or above eligible to compete for cash prizes. Placed in Silver or below? You can still participate in tournaments, such as Ranked Cups, with other players in your same skill group.
