Epic Games had a big plan for the end of 2023, and it’s definitely turning into a dream come true. The company behind Fortnite wanted to win back the players they had lost recently. They managed to do this by tapping into gamers’ nostalgia with the release of Fortnite Chapter 1 and the recent Eminem event. But Epic Games had one more trick up their sleeve before the year’s end, and they’ve just announced a new in-game concert featuring The Weeknd.

In-game concerts are something Fortnite is known for, and players have always enjoyed them. Stars like Travis Scott, Ariana Grande, Marshmello, and Major Lazer have experienced what it’s like to become a character in the game and have put on some fantastic shows. It’s like stepping into a fantasy world!

Now, it’s The Weeknd’s turn, and the date is set for his first in-game concert on Saturday, December 9th. This will give all players a chance to enjoy a unique musical experience within the game. The official trailer for the show will be released on Tuesday, December 5th, at 3:00 AM on The Weeknd’s official YouTube channel.

The Weeknd will arrive in the game with a new music-based game mode called Fortnite Festival, which will also be part of The Big Bang event, according to the developers. In this new mode, players can form a band with friends or perform solo on stage, playing their favorite musical hits.

We don’t know for sure yet if The Weeknd’s in-game character skin will be available in the game’s store. But if you’ve never played the game and want to attend this event, don’t worry. Fortnite is free, and you can enjoy the show by downloading the game whenever you like.
