Viewers can expect live coverage of the NAE/NAW, EU, and BR server regions for the first three Qualifiers on Sundays starting April 25 through May 9. Following that, Epic plans to have the FNCS Semi-Finals on May 22 and the Finals broadcast from May 29 – 30. Assuming you're in North America, you'll be able to tune in to the official broadcast starting at 5 PM EST (2 PM PT) tomorrow to watch the coverage in English.
The NAE coverage will start first at 5:15 PM ET, while the NAW live coverage will kick off at around 6:15 PM PT (9:15 PM ET). The EU coverage, meanwhile, will start at 7PM CET (1PM ET) with broadcasts available in German, English, French, and Spanish. Finally, Brazil Qualifiers coverage will start at 3:50 PM BRT and run through around 7:30 PM.
As with past seasons, Epic plans Twitch Drops for users on that platform — however, there will be a delay in getting them due to 'technical issues with Twitch' that Epic says it has faced during Season 6. The company says it wants to bring the Twitch Drops later on in Chapter 2 – Season 6 and that it'll let fans know when they're going to start rolling out.
