On Monday, Epic Games unveiled an exciting collaboration on the official Fortnite blog, sharing that they’re teaming up with Hatsune Miku for the Fortnite Festival. This special event is set to kick off on January 14 and will keep the fun going until April 8. During this period, players can look forward to an array of Miku-themed goodies popping up in the Fortnite Shop along with the Music Pass, which is a unique battle pass designed specifically for the Fortnite Festival.
Among the standout cosmetics arriving with the Music Pass, fans can expect two distinct Hatsune Miku outfits: the playful Neko Hatsune Miku and the vibrant Brite Hatsune Miku Style. Neko Hatsune Miku will charm players with its cute pink cat ears, while the Brite style draws inspiration from the iconic Brite Bomber and Fortnite’s own Supply Llama. Those eager to snag the Music Pass can either buy it solo for 1,400 V-Bucks or get it through a Fortnite Crew subscription.
For those who prefer not to grind through a battle pass, there’s good news. Other fantastic Miku-themed items are heading to the Item Shop, bundled together for added convenience. This special bundle will feature Miku in her classic outfit, alongside additional cosmetics like themed back bling and Emotes. Perhaps the icing on the cake is the inclusion of a jam track featuring “Miku” by Anamanaguchi and Miku, perfect for anyone looking to groove to her signature tune.
Since her debut back in 2007, Hatsune Miku has been a muse for electronic artists worldwide, her virtual voice bringing countless songs to life. Over the years, she’s blossomed into a global phenomenon, having toured the U.S., performed at Coachella, and even sparked a few viral memes. Her influence has also extended into collaborations with big names like Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering.
