Lady Gaga will headline the Fortnite Festival Season 2 which is expected to debut on 22 February. The pop star announced the digital concert herself and the showcase is expected to be themed around her most recent album, Chromatica.
Lady Gaga joins the likes of The Weeknd who performed during the original Fortnite Festival Season 1. During the celebration, players were able to get exclusive skins and listen to his various songs including Blinding Lights. The Weeknd also debuted the new music video to his song “Popular” during the festival.
While details are scarce on exactly what the Lady Gaga Fortnite Festival will include, the pop star will likely bring new cosmetics to the game while also giving players the opportunity to listen to her most popular music.
If Epic Games follows the same route as they did with The Weeknd, these cosmetics will include Fortnite skins and other items to collect during the festival. The Lady Gaga skin will likely be the final reward in the Premium Track of the Fortnite Festival Season 2 Pass.
Of course, if you’re not into Fortnite and just into Lady Gaga, you can watch some gameplay on YouTube tomorrow to witness the pop star’s appearance in the game.
Lady Gaga is currently busy with her anticipated LG7 album which is expected to debut later this year. The star has also recently wrapped up filming the sequel to the Joker film starring alongside Joaquin Phoenix.
Lady Gaga recently reshared her viral Tweet from 2019 where the star posted “What’s fortnight” in jest about the game’s popularity. This has come a full 180 now that the star will appear in her own Fortnite Festival. This was Lady Gaga’s first Tweet on the platform since October 2023 after Elon Musk took over.
