The virtual band Gorillaz is stepping into the spotlight as the featured icons for Fortnite Festival Season 10, promising an exciting blend of music and gameplay that could redefine player strategies in rhythm battles.
Gorillaz Take Center Stage
Kicking off on August 26, 2025, this season introduces Gorillaz band members like Noodle, 2D, Russel Hobbs, and Murdoc Niccals into the game. Players can expect a fresh Main Stage inspired by urban vibes, complete with skyscrapers, a moving train, and vibrant street art, which adds a dynamic layer to performances.
What's New in Gameplay?
Enhancements include 'Good' notes for better timing cues, customizable lift note visuals, and new sorting features in the Music Library by duration and intensity. Guitar users will appreciate the strumming calibration during tune-ups, making controls feel more intuitive and potentially boosting high-score chases.
Shop and Rewards Highlights
The Fortnite Shop features the Noodle & 2D Bundle with outfits, back blings, emotes, and tracks like 'DARE'. Don't miss the 'Clint Eastwood' Jam Track available all season.
The Music Pass unlocks premium items like Russel and Murdoc outfits, plus tracks such as 'On Melancholy Hill'. Free rewards offer instruments, auras, and Epic-created tracks, giving everyone a chance to jam out.
How Does This Affect Content Creators?
For creators, monetization of videos featuring Season 10 Jam Tracks is allowed only in the first seven days, a policy that encourages timely content while respecting music rights.
Additionally, Fortnite Festival integrates into Gorillaz’ House of Kong Exhibition in London, running until September 3, 2025, blending virtual and real-world fun.
