Chapter 2 Remix is debuting in Fortnite Battle Royale, ushered in by a music event in real life in Times Square and an in-game prelude as well.

The music event featured Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Ice Spice and the late Juice WRLD. The event is taking the global entertainment chops of Fortnite to a new level, with a big takeover in Times Square in New York. (We made it to the Nasdaq Tower in Times Square this week too) As tough a time as gaming has had in the past year, there’s no denying its growth in worldwide entertainment culture.
