How to Register & Compete
Players must be at least 13 years old and have Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) enabled on their Epic Games account. Registration is simple: open Fortnite, navigate to the Compete tab, and select the Wednesday Addams Haunted Cup when it goes live. Check local timings in-game as they vary by region.
Scoring System
Players earn points primarily through eliminations and high placements, with Victory Royales granting the most points. The Reload format features higher storm damage than standard Battle Royale, making aggressive play crucial. Placement points only apply to top performers, so focus on racking up eliminations.
Prizes & Rewards
Earning just 8 points unlocks the Grave Wednesday Spray for all participants. However, the Wednesday Addams Outfit requires top regional placement:
- EU Region: Ranks 1-850
- NA Central: Ranks 1-500
- Other Regions: Check in-game for specific cutoffs
If you miss the tournament window, the complete bundle will be available in the Item Shop for 2,500 V-Bucks, with the skin alone costing 1,500 V-Bucks.
What’s Included in the Bundle?
The full Wednesday Addams set features two outfit styles, Nevermore Satchel Back Bling, Wednesday’s Umbrella Pickaxe, Concerto of Woe and Wednesday’s Dance emotes (featuring “Goo Goo Muck” by The Cramps), plus the Woe Cello Bass Instrument.
Strategy Tips
With only 2.5 hours and 10 matches available, consistency matters more than single high-scoring games. Focus on surviving early fights to maximize elimination opportunities throughout the match. In tiebreakers, Epic Games considers average eliminations per match, average placement, and total survival time.
