Every few seasons, Fortnite runs a live event that bridges the gap between the end of the current offering, and the next season. Players load into a dedicated experience, in squads of up to four, and take part in shared objectives, large-scale spectacles, and sometimes musical experiences. In the past, we've controlled giant mechas, flown around a black hole, and platformed as the map collapsed around us. Downtime follows the end of live events, so make sure to jump in before it's gone.

Fortnite is set to run a new live event that'll bridge the gap between the current OG season and whatever comes next. Eminem is involved, as well as LEGO in some capacity. It's shaping up to be quite the show and is rather fittingly called the 'Big Bang' event.
