"We're getting behind competitive play in a big way, but our approach will be different", the blog reads, "- we plan to be more inclusive, and focused on the joy of playing and watching the game."
The blog post doesn't provide any more details, but Epic is promising that "more details about competitive structures and eligible platforms" will be revealed in the coming weeks.
