Fortnite sets date for Late Game Arena return
Respawn / Epic GamesDue to overwhelming player demand, Epic Games announced Late Game Arena is finally returning to Fortnite.
Late Game Arena is a competitive Fortnite game mode, available in Solos or Trios. Players earn points called Hype for placement or kills.
As with other Fortnite competitive game modes, there are ten Divisions and three Leagues; Open, Contender, and Champion.
