Fortnite Joins Olympic Esports Series with Unique Sport Shooting Competition.
Fortnite has been added to the International Olympic Committee's Olympic Esports Series as a 10th discipline, "sport shooting". This marks a U-turn by the IOC, which previously said that so-called "killer games" would never be featured. The competition will feature 10 virtual sports, including archery, baseball, cycling, sailing, taekwondo, tennis, and chess. Fortnite's inclusion will take the form of 12 top players from the game's 2023 Fortnite Champion Series being invited to take part.
