Fortnite teases collab with vocaloid Hatsune Miku - expect a concert, a pickaxe and skin

Fortnite is gearing up for a major collaboration with Hatsune Miku! Social media teases suggest a potential in-game appearance for the popular Vocaloid, sparking excitement among players.

The official Fortnite Festival account playfully engaged with a tweet from Hatsune Miku's account, reporting a missing backpack. This playful exchange hints at more than just a skin; expect a virtual concert, a unique pickaxe, and even a "Miku the Catgirl" skin variant.

Mark your calendars! The anticipated launch date is January 14th.

Separately, a reminder about fair play: In late December, professional Fortnite player Seb Araujo was accused of using cheat software (aimbot and wallhacks) to gain an unfair advantage and win thousands of dollars in prize money. Epic Games' lawsuit highlights the impact of cheating on legitimate competitors. The complaint alleges Araujo's actions deprived other players of a fair chance to win.
