In a one-word post on X, Lady Gaga announced that she is coming to Fortnite as its next official Fortnite Festival Featured Artist. In making the announcement, Lady Gaga jokingly quoted a post of hers from 2019 that stated "What's fortnight," and instead posted the announcement photo alongside the correction "*Fortnite" on February 20th, 2024.
Fortnite Festival is an excellent program for artists and musicians in the game as it spans a range of content additions promoting the artist and their music. Firstly, the in-game music stage rhythm game of the same name, Fortnite Festival, enables players to perform in-game concerts with up to three friends, with each member playing a separate instrument for the track. Additionally, many artist collaborations come with additional menu music, emotes, in-game skins, and even official in-game concerts. However, as this is just a teaser at this time, it is not confirmed what content will be available for Lady Gaga fans.
