Gamers8 Fortnite 2023: Format, Scoring System, and More

From July 7th to 9th, the Gamers8 Fortnite 2023 main event will unfold at the esteemed Riyadh Boulevard, creating an electrifying atmosphere for both players and fans alike. Adopting the zero build mode, this tactical twist on Fortnite Battle Royale pushes participants to rely solely on their sharp shooting, strategic thinking, and spatial awareness. In this mode, building is non-existent, and all players must utilize their recharging over-shield as their primary line of defense. A total of 44 duos, comprising both qualified and invited participants, will compete for glory and a substantial $2 million USD prize pool.

Across the three days of intense Fortnite action, a total of  8 matches will be played, with six matches scheduled each day. Duos will earn points based on their placement and eliminations, with scoring multipliers increasing each day. On the first day, eliminations are scored at  2 points, followed by  5 points on the second day and  8 points on the final day. Similarly, placement scores also rise as the tournament progresses. The top four duos will claim the lion's share of the prize pool, while all participants will receive a portion of the winnings.
