LATEST FORTNITE FESTIVAL SONGS ADD JUICE WRLD AND OTHERS TO THE GAME

Epic Games has shared exciting news about the upcoming additions to the popular Fortnite Festival, catering to the ever-growing demands of the community. Among the top requests was the inclusion of Juice WRLD, known for his profound impact on the music industry before his untimely passing. Although fans eagerly await to see him as an icon skin, they'll soon enjoy his music in-game. The Fortnite Festival's latest update brings two of Juice WRLD's chart-topping hits to the platform: "Lucid Dreams" and "Come & Go," boasting 2.4 billion and 929 million Spotify streams, respectively.

This week's Fortnite Festival lineup welcomes a diverse array of artists alongside Juice WRLD. The list includes DMX, Jimmy Eat World, Katy Perry, and Pi!nk, each debuting tracks that promise to enrich the Fortnite musical experience. Here are the songs set to enhance the playlist:

- Darude – "Sandstorm"
- DMX – "X Gon' Give It To Ya"
- Jimmy Eat World – "The Middle"
- Juice WRLD – "Lucid Dreams"
- Juice WRLD W/Marshmello – "Come & Go"
- Katy Perry – "Firework"
- P!nk – "So What"
- Saint Jhn – "Roses" (Imanbek Remix)

These new jams are scheduled to become a part of the Fortnite Festival in the Thursday Item Shop rotation at 8 pm EST/12 am GMT. Initially free to play upon release, these tracks will eventually join the regular rotation, with each available for 500 V-Bucks, allowing for any playback in Battle Royale mode.

Since its inception in December 2023 with Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1, the collaboration between Harmonix and Epic Games has seen the Fortnite Festival grow substantially. Their vision for the future includes expanding the song library to thousands, introducing plastic instruments, and enabling UEFN support by 2024.

The rhythm mode has seen celebrated appearances by artists like Green Day, Blink-182, Lady Gaga, The Weeknd, and U2. Continuing to cater to various musical tastes, last week saw the addition of Disturbed, Paramore, and Panic At The Disco, appealing particularly to Millennial gamers. The team at Epic Games remains committed to enriching the Fortnite Festival, consistently seeking to introduce more highly-requested artists and unforgettable tracks to the evolving platform.
