Fortnite World Cup Solo Champion Bugha joins the Fortnite Icon series. To celebrate the occasion, there will be a special cup with Bugha’s Late Game, in which players will compete for a prize pool of $100,000!
Bugha's Icon Series set will be available in the Fortnite item shop starting Wednesday, July 21, 2021 at 2:00 a.m. EDT. But even cooler than Bugha Cosmetics is Bugha's Late Game Cup, where the best of the best can show what the hell they can do! Are you already hyped and eager to know all about the details? Then look no further!
Bughas Late Game Arena
Bugha's Late Game Arena, running from July 20-28, puts players in the thick of the action in a Fortnite tournament. You and your trio will land on the island while the storm is already looming. Epic worked with Bugha to create nine unique inventory compilations divided into three-team kits. Each trio is randomly assigned one of these.
You can earn the exclusive “Hype” resource in Bugha's Late Game Arena. The trios who garnered at least 1,500 hype ahead of Bugha's Late Game Tournament on July 28, will get the chance to take part in the tournament.
