'Fortnite' Celebrates Coachella Festival With New Music And Outfits/Items

by Rainier on April 14, 2022 @ 12:20 p.m. PDT

Fortnite is an expansive original world that invites players to be creative, resourceful and collaborative, combining building skills and destructible environments with intense PvP combat.

In Fortnite, players and their friends lead a group of Heroes to reclaim and rebuild a homeland that has been left empty by a mysterious darkness only known as “the Storm.”

Players will band together online to explore the world for resources, build extravagant forts, find or build insane weapons and traps as they protect their towns from the strange monsters that emerge during the Storm.

Fortnite Battle Royale is the FREE 100-player PvP mode in Fortnite. One giant map. A battle bus.

The last one standing wins.


The sounds (and fashion!) of the Coachella music and arts festival come to Fortnite. From now ‘til May 16, turn to Icon Radio in your Joyride vehicle for a line-up of artists featured in Coachella 2022! And just as the festival itself lasts two weekends, this weekend and next will see the drop of new Coachella-themed items in the Item Shop.

Highlights:

  • BRING THE NOISE: Icon Radio will air songs from over 30 artists featured in Coachella 2022! While driving around in battle, turn to Icon Radio to add good vibes to your side.
  • AVAILABLE WEEK 1: The first wave of Coachella items drop on Thursday, April 14 at 8 PM ET with the Wilder and Lyric Outfits and their Cosmic Equalizer Alt Styles, plus matching accessories for each. The matching accessories for the Wilder Outfit are the Finfin Back Bling (included with the Outfit), Neon Biter Pickaxe, and Finfin Flair Wrap. The Lyric Outfit’s matching accessories are the Swaguaro Back Bling (included with the Outfit)and the Festival Shredder Pickaxe
  • AVAILABLE WEEK 2: The second wave of items drop on Thursday, April 21, at 8 PM ET with the music-reactive Alto and Poet Outfits and their matching accessories.
