However, the company stressed that the health and safety of contestants is "the first priority for any face-to-face event", and warned that if "public health trends change or regional laws or recommendations change at any time, the event time may be rescheduled".
It is not clear whether epic plans to hold some form of Fortress Night World Cup in 2023. The 2019 edition of the event is the first and only fortress Night World Cup so far. It is a three-day event with a prize pool of up to $30million. However, in april2020, epic said that it would not hold the World Cup due to the epidemic, and said at the end of that year that it would not hold the 2021 World Cup.
