Summary

  • Chappell Roan headlines Fortnite Festival Season 13 starting February 5
  • The Heartcore Music Pass unlocks her signature pink touring outfit and reactive items
  • The update adds VMA-inspired skins and hits like “HOT TO GO!” to the library

Epic Games has officially announced that Grammy-winning artist Chappell Roan will headline Fortnite Festival Season 13, bringing her “Midwest Princess” persona to the virtual stage. Following in the footsteps of icons like The Weeknd and Lady Gaga, Roan’s arrival launches a dedicated season centered on the aesthetic of her album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, complete with reactive cosmetics and chart-topping jam tracks.

The update is anchored by the Heartcore Music Pass, which grants instant access to the “Pink Pony Club” jam track. Progressing through the pass unlocks the primary Chappell Roan Outfit – a recreation of her signature pink touring look – along with an alternate Red Style. Premium rewards include the Midwest Princess Keytar and the Pink Pony Star Back Bling, a reactive accessory that shifts from pink to red during gameplay.

The Item Shop will also host the “Roan of Arc” Outfit, inspired by her viral “Good Luck, Babe!” performance at the 2024 VMAs. This collection features the Pink Pony Sidekick accessory and the traversal “Femininomenon” Emote. On the audio front, hits like “HOT TO GO!”, “The Giver” and “Good Luck, Babe!” is set to join the playable library.

Fortnite Festival Season 13 is scheduled to go live on February 5. Take a first look at Chappell Roan in-game above.
