Epic Games’ metaverse ambitions for Fortnite have slowly however absolutely been coming to fruition, with the studio turning what was as soon as a easy battle royale recreation right into a platform in-and-of-itself. The subsequent step in Epic’s plan will seemingly see the sport add a Rock Band / Guitar Hero styled music mode.
As shared by recognized Fortnite leaker HYPEX, the BR recreation is ready to get a rhythm mode referred to as “Festival” which is able to supposedly permit you (and your pals) to construct your individual band in-game, consisting of vocals, guitars, drums and bass. Essentially will probably be fairly just like the likes of Rock Band.
This makes a substantial amount of sense as, for the uninitiated, the Rock Band and Guitar Hero franchises have been developed by Harmonix – who have been then acquired by Epic Games in 2021. Additionally, the entire unofficially confirmed songs set to be launched on this new Festival mode can be found in Rock Band, which means music license legalese shouldn’t be a problem. The songs in query are:
- Lady Gaga – Pokerface
- Linkin Park – Numb
- Toto – Africa
- Imagine Dragons – Thunder
- Alice Cooper – Poison
- Fortnite Music Packs
While we should look forward to an official announcement, this new mode is claimed to be coming in only a few brief weeks on the ninth of December, which means we needs to be getting official phrase on the Festival mode quickly. Perhaps at The Game Awards?
KitGuru says: What do you consider Fortnite’s development? Is increasing to different genres the fitting transfer? Would you check out the Festival mode? Let us know down under.
