And officially The Remix: Chapter 2 of Fortnite just started. This is a new season based on evolving elements from Chapter 2 of the popular free-to-play game. The start of the new season was marked by Remix: The Prelude, a live event featuring Snoop Dogg and Ice Spice. The artists were even featured in the game and live in New York Times Square!
This season, which will take place from November 2 to November 30, will send players to a renewed version of the Fortnite Chapter 2 map, this time enriched with musical elements. So each week will focus on a different iconic rapper, starting with Snoop Dogg. Eminem takes his turn soon after, Ice Spice follows in third place and the season ends with a tribute to the late Juice WRLD. Players can expect points of interest on the map based on each of these artists and unique Mythic weapons.
For example, in the first week, the POI of the Agency will change to ‘The Doggpound’, Snoop Dogg’s headquarters. Defeating Snoop Dogg’s in-game avatar will earn Snoop’s Drum Gun, a Mythic weapon. Subsequent weeks will include similar transformations and rewards, such as Eminem’s “Spaghetti Grotto” and Ice Spice’s “Ice Isle.” The season will conclude with Remix: The Finale, another live event scheduled for November 30.
So this season continues Fortnite’s tradition of combining gaming with live music events, offering players special experiences. You can watch the trailers that accompanied the start of the new season by the following players.
