Fortnite and Metallica join forces on a special collaboration which puts on an in-game concert for players to experience. This partnership is for Festival Season 4 and it honors the band's rebellious spirit and music. The game island also gets a themed makeover with new landmarks and game challenges that are inspired by Metallica.
Players can select from outfits that are defined with inspiration from the band along with pickaxes and emotes. This continues with the game's signature Battle Royale -- it is backed with the Ride the Lightning guitars throughout the maps which can be grabbed as well. The electric blast comes from the guitar and it can be used against opponents or to clear an obstacle.
