Billie Eilish announced that she’d be taking to Fortnite on its festival’s headline stage today (April 23).
The ‘Ocean Eyes’ singer will be a playable character in Fortnite Festival, Fortnite‘s rhythm game that emulates the likes of Guitar Hero and Rock Band. We don’t know exactly what this collaboration will include, or which of the singer’s songs, but when previous artists took the virtual stage, players were able to play as them and play some of their top hits.
Eilish will be headlining Fortnite Festival season three. Lady Gaga appeared in season two, and The Weeknd kicked off season one. While the battle royale mode of the game frequently adds new characters, like Zuko, Katara, Toph, and Aang, the festival stage is the perfect place to add musical artists.
Other artists have been added to Fortnite, too. Ariana Grande was added to the game before the festival mode was made, and and famously held huge music events within it.
