Fortnite fans are in for a surprise as the game’s OG mode is coming to an end with a massive event that will feature a live performance by rap superstar Eminem.
According to recent leaks, the event will also include a LEGO partnership, Rhythm Mode and Racing Mode, making it the biggest event in Fortnite history by filesize alone.
Eminem, who released his latest album Curtain Call 2 in August 2022, is an unexpected guest in the Fortnite universe. The rapper, who rose to fame in the late 1990s and early 2000s, has not been very active in the music scene lately, and his appearance in Fortnite does not seem to be related to any new project. However, fans of the Slim Shady will be delighted to see him perform some of his classic hits as well as some of his newer songs.
The event will also offer three different variants of the Eminem skin for players to unlock. The first one is the old “Slim Shady” variant, which resembles Eminem’s look from his early days. The second one is the modern “Mafia” variant, which shows Eminem with a beard and a suit. The third one is the exclusive “Magma” variant, which can only be obtained by attending the event and features Eminem with a fiery appearance.
The OG mode-ending event is not only a musical extravaganza, but also a game-changing moment for Fortnite. The event will introduce new modes and features that will expand the possibilities of the game. The LEGO partnership will allow players to build and customize their own structures and vehicles with LEGO bricks. The Rhythm Mode will let players create and share their own music tracks using various instruments and sounds. The Racing Mode will enable players to race against each other in different vehicles and terrains.
The event is expected to take place on Saturday, December 2, but the exact time and date have not been confirmed yet. Epic Games has not officially announced the event or the Eminem collaboration, and has been trying to prevent any further leaks. However, the hype is already building up among the Fortnite community, and many are eager to see what the event has in store for them.
Fortnite is known for its ambitious and creative events that often feature celebrities and pop culture icons, and this one seems to be no exception.
