Virtual pop star Hatsune Miku is joining Fortnite Festival with new skins, instruments, and more crossover items. The collaboration will add free and premium rewards for fans of the music-themed Fortnite spinoff.
Miku's addition to Fortnite isn't surprising given that season 6 of the battle royale is celebrating Japanese culture and history. It's only fitting that its musical spinoff would add the biggest Japanese pop star in the world, from a certain point of view.
This season's Music Pass will include a single track for 1,400 V-Bucks. You can earn its free rewards by gaining XP through any Fortnite experience.
