Fortnite Festival with Lady Gaga: all the news of the pass

With the advent of version 28.30, Fortnite kicked off its second festival season on February 22, 2024, promising an unforgettable experience for pop fans until its climax on April 22 at 6:00 AM ET. This new season, entitled “Unlock Your Talent”, kicked off with an unreleased video from Madonna and The Weeknd and is an invitation to all players to immerse themselves in a world of music, challenges and rewards. The beating heart of this season is the Festival Pass, a gateway to two reward paths: a standard one and a Premium one. While the former promises to enrich the gaming experience with new musical instruments and Jam tracks, the latter offers the exclusive opportunity to take on the role of musical icons, such as the unmistakable Lady Gaga, through thematic costumes and instruments.

Music is the real engine of this in-game party. The Standard Rewards Path surprises with the “Carpenter” drum kit, which promises to envelop players with its unique sound. Added to this are three unreleased Jam tracks: “8-Bit Beat”, “Bloom” and “Best Buds”, enriching the musical arsenal available to participants. Those who opt for the Premium Rewards Track will find themselves immersed in Lady Gaga's universe. With an investment of 1,800 V-Bucks, players will unlock the “Glitch Rhythm” aura and have access to the “Enigmatic Gaga” costume, inspired by Lady Gaga's iconic looks. But that's not all: the route also offers exclusive instruments such as the Chromatica Guitar and the Chromatica Keytar, as well as four Jam tracks from world-famous artists, including Gaga herself with her hit “Poker Face”.

Season 2 isn't just about gaming. In fact, it also offers unique opportunities to content creators in the Support a Creator (SuC) program, allowing them to monetize VOD content on YouTube with a selection of Jam tracks, changed weekly. This initiative opens new avenues for creativity and sharing gaming experiences, while respecting monetization and copyright guidelines. Fortnite Festival Season 2 stands out for the introduction of new elements that enrich the gaming experience, from musical emotes such as “Giro di shoulder” and “Bow in backbeat” to the new Jam tracks, which promise to keep the pace high. Additionally, the season is enhanced with Gaga's Chromatica armor, available in the Store until the end of the season, giving players the opportunity to shine on the virtual stage.
