In Fortnite, a Galaxy Cup will soon take place, where you can win a skin and a weapon wrap. Only the best will be rewarded with it; the rest will have to pay later.
What kind of skin is this? In collaboration with Samsung, Epic is bringing a new Galaxy skin along with the corresponding weapon wrap. It is the female version of the Galaxy skin, which was available with a $1000 Samsung phone.
This skin reflects the universe and one can admit it looks pretty cool. This is the new Galaxy skin that will soon be available in Fortnite:
Galaxy Skin free, but not for everyone
How can you get the new skin for free? Unlike the first Galaxy skin, for which you had to purchase a smartphone or tablet, there is a way to secure this outfit entirely for free.
However, you must participate in the Galaxy Cup and prove yourself there. Only the best players in all regions will receive the skin. For Europe, this means the top 10,000 placements.
What is the Galaxy Cup? The tournament will take place from July 25 to July 26, 2020. There, players with an Android device supported by Fortnite will compete against each other. On both days, the best players can unlock the outfit and the weapon wrap.
Important: All players who participate in at least 5 rounds will receive the weapon wrap for free, and the top 10,000 in Europe will receive the skin.
How you can participate in the Cup
What you need to consider before the tournament: The Galaxy tournament is available in all regions. However, to participate in the tournament, you must first meet a few requirements:
- You must have downloaded Fortnite on your Android device
- You must have the Two-Factor Authentication activated
If you meet these two requirements, you can participate in the Galaxy tournament. Just start Fortnite on your Android device and go to the competition tab in the menu bar. The Galaxy Cup should appear there, and you can register for it with a press of a button.
Galaxy Woman available for everyone?
Is the skin exclusive for Android players? Although the Galaxy skin can be won in the tournament, it will not remain exclusive to Android players. Epic has announced that the outfit “Galaxy Scout” and the corresponding cosmetics will be available in the item shop at a later date. So it will not be among the rarest skins in Fortnite.
It is also not the first time that Fortnite offers a skin or cosmetic in a collaboration for specific users, which will then also be available in the Fortnite shop. Recently, OnePlus phone owners received a free emote. This will also not remain exclusive, but will later be available to other players as well.
