As the gaming community has finally settled down after the transition into the new-gen of gaming, Fortnite is here with a console-specific tournament called the Generations Cup. Trust us when we tell you the pay-off is pretty huge. Fortnite has partnered with PlayStation for this tournament that is exclusively for players on PS4 and PS5, and the winners stand a chance to win a PS5 console!

We all know how difficult it has been for the community to get their hands on the new-gen console from the house of Sony. We remember the pre-order massacre as well as the similar market conditions during the launch of the PS5. Given the availability status for the console across various retail options, we can certainly say that Epic has upped the ante for the PlayStation-exclusive tournament with such a huge payoff.
