After speculation from fans, Epic Games has confirmed there's a Fortnite and Travis Scott collaboration on the way. 


Travis Scott will headline an event coming to Fortnite later this week entitled Astronomical, with multiple "tour dates" to enable players across the world to participate. On April 23 through to April 25, La Flame will host a "one of a kind musical journey" that will see him premiere a previously unheard song. In addition, gamers can earn in-game items for free by completing challenges part of the Astronomical event including an Astroworld-branded cyclone glider.

An other-worldly experience like nothing you’ve ever seen is coming April 23-25.

Doors to the event will open 30 minutes before, and fans that don't want to miss out have been advised to get in early. Before it all kicks off, however, Travis Scott will be added as a skin to the game as part of the Icon Series. His outfits, emotes, and other cosmetics will be available from Tuesday onwards. It'll all start with a show for North American players at 7 p.m. EDT on April 23, with Europe and the Middle East getting a show the following day, and Asia and Oceania on April 25.
