Summary
Fortnite Festivalappears to have confirmed a collaboration with Crypton Future Media to bring Hatsune Miku to the game. Although theFortnitesocial media accounts are known for being somewhat chatty with internet users, when it comes to confirming what content is making it into the game, they’re usually quiet until something is certain. This is why it’s exciting to see apparent confirmation that there’s a collaboration with Miku.
Fortnitefans have been hyped for the chance to see Hatsune Miku appear in the game for some time now. Many gamers have been excited at the absurd nature of the collaboration, falling in line with some of themore wild recentFortnitecollaboration suggestions. Leaks have suggested that Miku would show up in the game starting January 14, but all of the officialFortniteaccounts have been quiet about the collaboration until now.
A post from theFortnite FestivalTwitter account appears to confirm thelong-rumoredFortnitex Hatsune Miku collaboration. The official Hatsune Miku account operated by Crypton Future Media, which owns the character, made a post stating that Miku’s backpack was missing and asked if anyone had seen it. TheFortnite Festivalaccount replied, implying they’d found it, stating that they’re “holding it backstage” for her. TheFortnite Festivalaccount typically tweets in a more cryptic fashion until there’s more to share, so this appears to be a confirmation of Miku’s arrival ahead of a larger announcement.
Fortnite Festival Quietly Appears to Confirm Miku Collab
Fortniteleakers likeShiinaBR have been suggestingthat Hatsune Miku is set for a January 14 launch, which coincides with the game’s next expected update. The character is rumored to launch with two skins, a normal one showing off Miku’s classic outfit, which will come with the Fortnite Festival Pass, as well as a “Neko Hatsune Miku” skin, which can be bought in theFortniteItem Shop. Whether the Neko Miku outfit isan originalFortniteskinor something inspired by the character’s previous appearances in other media is currently unknown.
The Miku collaboration is rumored to introduce several songs toFortnite, such as Anamanguchi’s “Miku” and Ashniiko’s “Daisy 2.0 Feat. Hatsune Miku.” Hatsune Miku’s appearance inFortnitecouldgiveFortnite Festivalsome extra attention. Although the mode is a popular part of the newerFortniteecosystem introduced in 2023,Fortnite Festivaldoesn’t appear to maintain the same level of hype that the core Battle Royale format, Rocket Racing, orLEGO Fortnite Odysseydo. Some gamers hope thatFortnite Festivaleventually becomes as popular as theGuitar HeroandRock Bandseries of games once were, and crossing over with big names like Snoop Dog and even Hatsune Miku appears to be helping the game reach those heights.
