MrBeast's Fortnite Extreme Survival Challenge format explained

The tournament was held on a special in-game island created by Atlas Creative called MrBeast's Extreme Survival Challenge. In this, players had to avoid hazards, survive "extreme challenges," and earn "Score" within a certain amount of time. In an official announcement, Epic Games mentioned:

"Avoid hazards, collect coins, and survive extreme challenges to earn “Score.” Earn as much Score as you can before time runs out in the match."

Epic Games stated that players can play "as many matches" as they want during this time. The game's developers also clarified that the placement will be determined by the Score of the player's "best match":

"You can play as many matches as you want during this time. After the challenge concludes, the Score of your best match (the match you got the most Score in) will determine your placement. The player with the highest Score will earn one million dollars (USD)!"
