The Kid Laroi's Wild Dreams event is heading to Fortnite Creative mode on Friday along with special items, quests, and more.
Fortnite is no stranger to musical collaborations, hosting live concerts with EDM DJ Marshmellow, rapper Travis Scott and Ariana Grande in the past. However, their latest collaboration with Australian singer song-writer The Kid Laroi looks set to be the most ambitious to date.
Titled 'Wild Dreams', the crossover features one of the most streamed artists on Spotify in 2022 and will take place on two custom-crafted islands. The event will treat us to The Kid Laroi's upcoming single Love Again – which releases the same day – as well as three unreleased tracks.
The two islands, created by Alliance Studios, Team Atomic, and TheBoyDilly, will allow players to find their way through the cybercity 'Laroitown', which will lead them to a packed The Kid Laroi concert. Players can then travel to 'The Afterparty' where they can hang out with the Aussie rapper, and listen to the Wild Dreams mix on a loop, whilst looking around an exhibition about the singer's life, both on tour and off.
