Hatsune Miku Joins Fortnite: Concert, Pickaxe, and Skin Incoming

Fortnite is gearing up for a major collaboration with Hatsune Miku! Social media buzz suggests a potential in-game appearance, possibly including more than just a skin. The Fortnite Festival account playfully claims possession of Miku's backpack, while Miku's official account reports it missing, sparking excitement among players.

Rumors point to a full Vocaloid skin, a virtual concert, a unique pickaxe, and even a "Miku the Catgirl" skin variant. The anticipated launch date is January 14th.

Separately, a reminder about fair play: Fortnite pro player Seb Araujo recently faced consequences for using cheat software (aimbot and wallhacks) in a late December tournament, resulting in an unfair advantage and winnings of thousands of dollars, according to Epic Games. The company alleges Araujo's actions deprived legitimate competitors of a fair chance to win.
