South Korean esports organisation T1 has revealed its Fortnite roster for the 2026 Fortnite Championship Series (FNCS) season.
The organisation has signed the Polish pair of ‘Demus‘ and ‘Darm‘ who competed alongside each other throughout the 2025 season.
Unveiled on X (Twitter), Darm and Demus have already started the 2026 campaign on the front foot, winning Mistrzostwa Polski #2 while participating under the BIG banner. In addition to tournament victories, the duo recently scored a fourth place in week seven of the Chapter 7 Season 1 Duos Victory Cup.
The signing marks T1’s return to Fortnite esports after one and a half years. The organisation hasn’t fielded players in the battle royale title since October 2024, when it parted ways with the Japanese trio of ‘Michael‘, ‘ZAZI‘, and ‘Vall‘.
T1 is one of several organisations recruiting players for this year’s FNCS circuit. On January 9th, Gen.G unveiled its Fortnite roster, consisting of two North American players.
For T1, its return to Fortnite continues its recent expansion into the battle royale genre. In December 2025, the organisation unveiled its Call of Duty: Warzone line-up, headlined by World Series of Warzone winner ‘Echo’.
Fortnite Esports in 2026
This year’s Fortnite season begins on January 31st with the FNCS Trial, a tournament that decides the divisions of players based on their performance. Following the Trial, players will compete in Divisional Cups taking place throughout Chapter 7.
The opening FNCS Major of 2026 will run from April 6th to 26th, with top duos from across the world competing in regional tournaments to determine who qualifies for the Major Finals. The best-performing players from the Major Finals will earn a place at the FNCS Major 1 Summit, the first LAN of the season. The top five duos from the Major 1 Summit will qualify for the season-ending Fortnite Global Championship.
T1 is one of the world’s largest esports organisations and its return to Fortnite with some of Europe’s top talent positions it to compete against the region’s established names from the outset.
