Fortnite Getting a Flash Skin – and you can win it early

A skin based on DC’s Flash superhero is coming to Fortnite this week, but it is possible to win it three days before. Flash is the latest DC superhero to join the Fortnite DC skins lineup and will be available for everyone to purchase from February 13th at 7pm ET / 4pm PT. A set with the Flash theme will also be available, featuring not only the skin, but also the Speed ​​Force Slashers pick, the Speed ​​Force back bling and the Quick Bite emote. If you don’t want to wait until February 13th, you can get your skin back on February 10th.

“On February 10, we will celebrate The Flash in Fortnite with The Flash Cup, a Duos tournament,” says an Epic Games blog post. “Join the Battle Bus with your partner Duos and play up to 10 games within a 3 hour window. The top performing Duos in each region will unlock The Flash Outfit and Speed ​​Force Back Bling before entering the Item Shop.”

Epic Games says the specific time for each Flash Cup in the region can be found on Fortnite’s “Compete” tab in the game. To compete, your account level must be at least level 30 and you must have two-factor authentication enabled.

A Victory Royale during the World Cup will win a double of 42 points, while the runner-up gains 36 points, the third place 32 points and so on. The best pairs from Europe, North America East, North America West, Brazil, Asia, Oceania and the Middle East will receive the Flash skin and the corresponding bling three days before being available for purchase in the game store.
