Lady Gaga has recently hinted at the possibility of her new character being featured in the popular game Fortnite. The pop icon took to social media to share a cryptic post that has sparked excitement among fans.
In a post on X/Twitter, Lady Gaga uploaded an image of a Fortnite character illuminated by a pink spotlight, accompanied by the caption '*fortnite'. This teaser comes ahead of the expected announcement that Lady Gaga will headline the upcoming season of the Fortnite Festival, set to kick off on February 22.
Rumors of Lady Gaga's involvement with Fortnite have been circulating for some time, with a supposed leak in 2022 hinting at her inclusion. The speculation gained further traction when players discovered an emote called Jug Band that played a fiddle rendition of Lady Gaga's hit song 'Poker Face' when used by four players simultaneously.
The Fortnite Festival is a music-driven game mode within Fortnite that allows players to engage in rhythm-based gameplay by playing instruments through their controllers. Similar to games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band, players can enjoy licensed tracks while immersing themselves in the virtual world of Fortnite.
Previously, The Weeknd headlined the Fortnite Festival, with his character model and music featured in the game. Players could also purchase items related to The Weeknd from the in-game shop. It remains to be seen how Lady Gaga's potential involvement will be integrated into the game and whether it will follow a similar format to The Weeknd's appearance.
As anticipation builds for Lady Gaga's potential performance in Fortnite, fans are eagerly awaiting further details on what to expect from this exciting collaboration between the pop star and the popular gaming platform.
