After two years off, the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival returns this weekend. One of the ways it’s celebrating its return is with a Fortnite collaboration. A bunch of Coachella-themed cosmetics are coming to the Item Shop as part of the festival’s first-ever gaming partnership.
Starting today at 8PM ET, you can snag the Wilder and Lyric outfits. Next Thursday, two other outfits, Alto and Poet, will be available. All of the skins will react to music you hear playing in the game. They all come with matching accessories too, such as wraps, pickaxes and back bling.
Fortnite is marking Coachella’s comeback in another way: through music, of course. Coachella is taking over the Icon Radio station until May 16. Turn on the radio while you’re driving a car and you’ll be able to hear music from more than 30 artists who are performing at this year’s festival.
You won’t be able to watch Coachella livestreams in Fortnite, unfortunately. You’ll have to go to YouTube for that. Still, this is a neat crossover that might help some folks who aren’t going to the Empire Polo Club over the next two weekends feel like they’re at the party.
