Fortnite Festival coming to Fortnite on Dec. 9th, 2023

Fortnite has announced that a brand new game mode is coming called Fortnite Festival. It will be made widely available on December 9, 2023. They’ve also launched an official Fortnite Festival Twitter account for all related news and updates.

Dataminers had previously discovered evidence of a Fortnite Festival coming to the game, but now we have official confirmation. Fortnite has yet to announce exactly what this new mode will entail, but we did get a look at a the above thumbnail which features a band led by The Weeknd.

Previous leaks indicated that Fortnite Festival might actually be a rhythm game mode featuring numerous popular artists and developed by Harmonix. If the art shared here is anything to go by, that seems like a likely outcome. We won’t have long to wait, as Fortnite Festival launches in just one week, on December 9th, 2023.
