Cold began competing in Epic Cash Cups and Fortnite FNCS Chapters in 2020 after transitioning from playing on controller on his PlayStation5 to PC and adapting to life as a keyboard and mouse pro.

City’s newest signing spent two years perfecting his craft before consistently winning Cash Cup competitions.

Then, in 2023, Cold went on to have his best year as a Fortnite pro, winning eight competitions before taking the international stage by storm.

And alongside his duo Acorn, Cold was crowned the winner of the FNCS Global Championship in October to become one of the youngest players to ever lift the trophy.

Now representing his sixth organisation since starting his Fortnite career, Cold is excited for what’s to come with Man City Esports and the challenges he will face as he looks to retain his FNCS title.

“I was honoured that Man City Esports wanted to sign me so I’m looking forward to making the organisation, my fans and my family proud,” said Cold.

“Having won FNCS Major I in 2023 there’s definitely pressure to repeat the feat in 2024 but I’ll be using that as motivation to have my best year yet.

“I can’t wait to see what we can achieve as an organisation this year!”

Everyone at Manchester City excited to welcome Cold to the Fortnite roster and we would like to wish him the best of luck competing this year.
