Watch the Trailer for The Weeknd x 'Fortnite' Festival
Offering a new music-based experience within the game.
Following early leaks, Epic Games has now shared a trailer for its partnership with The Weeknd for its Fortnite Festival event. Serving as the first artist of the new music-based experience within the game, The Weeknd-themed additions will join the new items, weapons, vehicles, and more found in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1.
Additionally, teaming up with Rock Band developer studio Harmonix, Fortnite will be offering a game mode where players hit notes in time to a song while watching an artist onscreen. Players will have the option of performing in a band with their friends or playing solo onstage.
Leaks have shared that The Weeknd x Fortnite Festival will feature a new microphone design, two new bass designs, three songs, a keytar design, “Boombox” Aura, a loading screen, and The Weeknd skin accessed through a paid Festival Pass.
The Weeknd x Fortnite Festival will be launching December 9.
