Fortnite just announced the return of in-person competitive events starting with the FNCS Invitational 2022 which offers a prize pool of $1 million.

The last massive in-person Fortnite event was the Fortnite World Cup held in 2019. The event was held in New York City and boasted a $30 million prize pool.

However, due to the severity of the global pandemic in 2020, in-person events were put on hold to keep players safe.

Now, Fortnite has just announced the return of in-person events starting this November when a prize pool of $1 million is up for grabs at the FNCS Invitational 2022.
