FNCS Format

Participants get to play Season 7 FNCS in Trios. Last season fans gave a lot of positive feedback on the changes made, including the point format. Going in the same vein, Season 7 will have a familiar format with minor adjustments.

Each new season of FNCS has brought with it adjustments to the point or qualification format. However, Fortnite prefers to stick to its current position and is eager to see the long-term effects of a more standardized FNCS across multiple seasons.

Similar to the previous season, anyone in the Champion League can still form a trio with other Champion League players and openly compete in FNCS. Oceania will have slightly fewer teams advancing from Round 1 to Round 2.
