Fortnite Solo Showdown LTM Blog, Rewards, Rules and Leaderboard

Epic Games has announced the return of the Fortnite Solo Showdown LTM or limited time mode on their official blog that will mark the return of the public competitive mode for players of Fortnite Battle Royale. In the only version of a competitive playlist that has been implemented for Fortnite, the Solo Showdown LTM allows players to prove their talent and skills in the popular battle royale game for the chance to receive some worthwhile rewards, while climbing their way to the top of the standings.

The first 25 matches that players play in the Fortnite Solo Showdown LTM will be the ones counted towards their overall score with players having to play 25 matches in order to be eligible to receive a prize. Epic Games will reward the top 100 players in the regions of North America, Europe, Oceanic, Brazil, and Asia. 

Players can keep up with the current standings of the Fortnite Solo Showdown LTM by visiting the official blog ran by Epic Games for the event here. 

Rewards for each region eligible to participate in the Fortnite Solo Showdown LTM will be varying amounts of V-Bucks.

However, many players will likely be looking to claim a top spot in the standings of this edition of the event, as Epic Games has stated that top performers in the event will have a chance to get invited to future Fortnite Summer Skirmish events where hundreds of thousands of dollars are up for grabs for a eight week period that will see $8,000,000 awarded. 

You can find the official list of rewards for the Fortnite Solo Showdown LTM below. 

1st Place:  50,000 V-Bucks

2nd - 4th  Place:  25,000 V-Bucks

5th – 50th Place:  13,500 V-Bucks

51st – 100th Place:  7,500 V-Bucks

Scoring for the Solo Showdown LTM will be based on placement with Victory Royales granting you 100 points, while each elimination a player collects will award them with six points. You can find the official scoring system for the Solo Showdown LTM below. 

If there is a tie in the final standings, Epic Games will use "total wins, total eliminations, and average placement during the Solo Showdown LTM" as tiebreakers. 

Members of the community will have between Friday, July 27th and Monday, July 30th to collect as many Victory Royales and eliminations as possible in order to climb to the top of the Fortnite Solo Showdown LTM standings, claim their V-Bucks rewards and secure a possible invite to compete for hundreds of thousands of dollars against some of the biggest names in the Fortnite world in a future Summer Skirmish event.
