Epic Games announced on May 21 that it will provide $100 million to fund prize pools for "Fortnite" tournaments during the first year of competition.
"Grab your gear, drop in and start training. Since the launch of Fortnite Battle Royale we've watched the passion for community competition grow and can't wait to empower you to battle with the best," the company said in a blog post. "In the 2018 - 2019 season, Epic Games will provide $100,000,000 to fund prize pools for Fortnite competitions. We're getting behind competitive play in a big way, but our approach will be different - we plan to be more inclusive, and focused on the joy of playing and watching the game."
The company said it will reveal more details about the competitions in the coming weeks.
"Fortnite" from Epic Games is the hottest game on the internet, surpassing "Minecraft."
Epic said in January that the game had more than 45 million players, including rap stars like Drake, top Twitch streamers and ordinary gamers.
CNBC compiled tips and tricks from the top Fortnite players like Ninja, Dakotaz and Zaccubus on how to master the game.
