Epic Games is bringing a new interactive tribute experience featuring the iconic electronic duo Daft Punk to Fortnite. Set to start on September 27 at 11 AM Pacific, this unique event allows players to engage with the band's music beyond a traditional concert. Players can remix Daft Punk's songs, create music videos, or simply enjoy the music in a creative playground instead of debuting new tracks. The event is a nod to the band's legacy since they are no longer performing live. Players can also purchase themed skins, instruments, and tracks in the Fortnite shop to enhance their gaming experience. This initiative follows the introduction of Fortnite's new proximity chat-focused battle royale mode, Delulu, which has seen a robust launch, albeit with a wave of account bans.

Will new Daft Punk music be released during the Fortnite Experience?

No, no new music will be debuted during the Daft Punk Experience in Fortnite. The event is focused on engaging players with the existing beloved music of the duo.

Daft Punk, consisting of Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, revolutionized the electronic music scene with their innovative sound and elaborate live performances. After announcing their retirement in 2021, this interactive tribute in Fortnite serves as a way to celebrate their influential music and creative vision, ensuring their legacy lives on in the gaming and music communities. Additionally, Fortnite's platform allows for unique collaborations that blend gaming with popular culture, making it a hub for such memorable events.
