Fortnite free agent King Richard has signed with a new organization according to his tweet on October 8th.
The former NRG and Team Envy player has been a free agent since July.
July was also his most successful month as a competitive player when he had a string of high placement Duo games in the late weeks of Summer Skirmish playing with Dmo.
He finished first in Summer Skirmish Week Six Day Two and followed that up with two fifth-place finishes on both days of Week Seven.
Since then, he finished 20th in Week One of Fall Skirmish and 16th playing with Ninja in Week Three.
We pro again boys and girls find out more soon. Also sorting out pc stuff then I’m going to try and go live!
