Fortnite recently announced that competitive cash cups will soon be available in Reload mode for Chapter 5 Season 4, causing great excitement among players.
Ever since its release, Fortnite’s Reload mode has gained significant popularity. With over 300k players, the mode has surpassed the single-day concurrent player record of Season 3’s Battle Royale and Zero Build modes combined.
The mode has attracted a steady player base as many in the community are revisiting the Chapter 1 map, reminiscing on their old days. While it remains a distinct game mode and is popular among casual players, those looking to compete in tournaments must continue to grind on the current Battle Royale map.
Recently, it was announced by Fortnite that Reload mode will now have its own Cash Cup tournaments in Chapter 5 Season 4. This gives players who are participating in Ranked Reload the opportunity to showcase their abilities. In the previous month, Epic organized a Reload Test Cup where each lobby consisted of 40 players to test the competition.
Reload lets players drop back into action after getting eliminated.
Following a successful test, Epic has been convinced of the community’s desire for competitive tournaments to be held on their OG map. The tournament schedule will be announced at the launch of the upcoming Marvel season.

Despite the excitement surrounding the announcement of the Reload mode, fans have one major concern about the upcoming cash cups: the potential increase in cheaters.
One player in particular expressed apprehension about the cash cups, stating, “To be honest, I don’t see why we can’t cancel the cash cups until the cheating issue is resolved.”
Another user shared their thoughts, saying: “Yes, please bring back reload cash cups. But also, please focus on improving the Anti-Cheat system and addressing the issue of cheaters.”Someone else also expressed their eagerness for cheaters to be dealt with, saying: “I’m looking forward to seeing cheaters being taken off the leaderboard.”
Despite some reservations, many are eagerly anticipating a potential new format for Fortnite tournaments in next year’s FNCS Global Championship. This change could potentially level the playing field for Reload players and give them a better chance at securing a Victory Royale.
