How does Bugha's Late Game work?

Bugha's LTM: Bugha's Late Game will run from July 20 until July 28 and put players in the middle of competitive Fortnite. You and your Trio will drop on the island while the storm is already closing in. The devs also collaborated with Bugha to come up with nine starting inventories grouped into three team loadouts. Each trio gets assigned one of those loadouts and then has to earn Hype while playing Bugha's Late Game Arena. Every player who earns at least 1500 Hype before the end of the event on July 28 will be eligible to participate in the tournament.

The tournament will take place on July 28 across two rounds. Each round will be two hours with a maximum of ten matches each. All qualified players will compete against others in their region for a share of the huge $100.000 prize pool.

Note: Players must have 2FA enabled on their Epic account before competing!
