BLAST has announced that it has signed a year-long partnership with Epic Games to produce and deliver all Fortnite Championship Series events over the course of 2022. The deal, which will span all regions, will be the largest project BLAST has undertaken since the creation of the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive tournament scene BLAST Premier.
"This kind of collaboration with publishers has become a huge area of growth and focus for BLAST as a business over the last 18 months," said Leo Matlock, MD for development at BLAST. "The fact that one of the world's leading game titles has entrusted its 2022 competitive scene to us is testament to the world class output we've created during this period, and we believe we're just at the beginning of our journey."
