You can win a free The Flash Skin if you do well enough in the Fortnite The Flash Cup. How to participate, the schedule, scoring system and how to get the skin – we got all the info right here.

So tomorrow we're getting a quick one-day tournament: The Flash Cup. Funny, cause it's a flash tournament. Ha. Get it.

Ok... moving on.

With The Flash Cup comes a new Fortnite skin: The Flash Outfit. You can buy it in the store on February 13, but, with a little skill, you can also get it for free.

All of this can be yours... if you are fast enough in The Flash Cup... fast like The Thunder. Yeah. Thunder. Didn't see that coming, huh? (Credit: Epic Games)

All in all, the whole set includes all these goodies:

  • The Flash Outfit
  • The Speed Force Slashers Pickaxe
  • The Speed Force Back Bling
  • The Quick Bite Emote

Every single one of these came with a super cringe tagline like 'Grab a light(speed) snack', but we'll spare you those...

If you want to get these before they release in the store on February 13, and you want them for free, then it's really up to not being a scrub: Place well in the Flash Cup and the Flash skin as well as the Speed Force Back Bling can be your prize for free.

The Flash Cup takes place on February 10 and will also end on that same day. One day only, folks! Be quick. Be like the Flas––

Ok, no...

But seriously:The event starts on February 10 and runs for 3 hours. The start time for each region is 5pm local time.

It's a duos tournament and you can play 10 games in that time frame. You get points that add up and anybody high in the leaderboards gets the prizes.

Important: You gotta have 2FA on your account. For more on that, check the Epic website.
