The ‘What Was I Made For?’ singer shared an image of her in-game skin on X with the caption “Fortnite Festival Main Stage: 4.23.24.”
While no additional information has been provided about Eilish’s main stage event, it is expected that her songs will be playable in the Fortnite Festival mode and that her neon green skin will be available in the Fortnite shop.
Additionally, based on speculation within the gaming community, Eilish’s hits such as ‘Happier Than Ever’, ‘Ocean Eyes’, ‘Everything I Wanted’, ‘Lovely’ and ‘Bellyache’, amongst others, could be added to the Fortnite Festival season 3 song list. While some could be listed in the Fortnite Shop, others could be exclusive to the season 3 pass.
