Two iconic challengers from Street Fighter II are about to come to Fortnite, as Cammy and Guile will join the battle royale after Epic Games teased the debut of more characters from this franchise, during Street Fighter V's Summer Update showcase.
As part of the arrival of these two legendary fighters, Epic has announced a brand new cup tournament to celebrate this moment, as well as giving an opportunity for Fortnite players to flex their skills in the arena in the Cammy Cup.
Fortnite Cammy Cup: How to join
Fortnite’s Cammy Cup will be restricted to only duos, while all participants must be ranked in the Arena. According to their current rank, players will be divided in different lobbies to maintain balance at all matches.
Eligible players include any player that is aged 13 years or older. If a player is under 18 years then they will need to have permission from a parent or legal guardian.
Only players with Epic accounts levelled thirty or above will be eligible to compete, and must also have Two-Factor Authentication (“2FA”) enabled on their Epic account and their account must be in good standing.
As always, the following regions will not be permitted to play: Cuba, Iran, Iraq, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Turkey and Zimbabwe
Once the tournament becomes active, you will be able to register in-game.
