FAQ

Did everyone who played get the skin?

No — the outfit went only to top regional placements. The participation reward everyone could realistically reach was the spray at 8 points.

Was the pickaxe in the cup?

No. The Tentacles of the Slender Man back bling came with the outfit placement; the pickaxe wasn't a cup reward.

Is there a rerun?

No rerun was announced. Fortnite typically runs collab cups once — watch the in-game Compete tab for any sequel events.
