Fortnite is now an official Olympic (e)sport, as Epic's metaverse game will be part of the inaugural Olympic Esports Week line-up. From a report Taking place in Singapore, the four-day festival of "virtual sports and gaming" created by the International Olympics Committee will see a dozen players from the Fortnite Champion Series compete in a sharpshooting competition backed by the International Shooting Sport Federation. This event will be (virtually) held on a Fortnite Creative Island that was created just for the event and will showcase the marksmanship of Fortnite's best sharpshooters. If you can't make it to Singapore on June 24, the competition will be livestreamed through the official Olympics website and through the organization's social media channels.
