FNCS made its return to trios in Season 4 for the first time since the inaugural Season X event. While it had been a pretty poorly kept secret, there were some changes to the format from when it last appeared in August 2019.
From the early qualifying stages to the Grand Final showdown, each major region had plenty to play for. If you missed any of the games from across the season of competition, we’ve got you covered with the full results below.

FNCS Season 4 format
FNCS Season 4 returned to the Trios format that had been used in the past, and is arguably the most popular competitive format in the tournament’s history, with past events filled with massive plays and huge battles that make for the ultimate Fortnite viewing experience.
As always, FNCS runs on a points-based scoring system, with your final placement in matches contributing to your overall score at the end of the weekend. Those who manage to win a game will receive 25 points as their reward, with the values decreasing incrementally down to 17th place, with anyone finishing below that scoring nothing. There are points for finding eliminations though, so players will be on the lookout for enemies to wipe out and add to their tally.
