Fortnite has finally revealed its most popular competitive event next year, the FNCS 2026. On the stage of the just-concluded FNCS Global Championship 2025, the title also revealed some electrifying updates on the next year’s plan.

For the first time, Fortnite is coming with a mobile tournament to FNCS starting from 2026. The recent comeback to the iOS stores in several regions has prompted the game to do so. The battle royale, though, didn’t share much except for the names. However, fans won’t forget to enjoy the action-packed fights in the upcoming esports tournament.

Along with the regular events, it revealed three new tournaments: FNCS Mid-Season LAN, Reload Elite Series LAN, and a Mobile Series with a huge prize pool of $1 million.

Fortnite plans to host a Mobile Series to celebrate the return of the game to iOS this year. The event will share a whopping amount of $1 million for the participants.
