Fortnite announced today that it is rolling out a new OG Battle Royale season, called Chapter 2 Remix, in partnership with Snoop Dogg, Ice Spice, Eminem, and, posthumously, Juice WLRD. In each week of November, Fortnite will have a waterfall rollout of new map locations "revamped" by the artists, culminating in a finale event.
Week 1 will have Snoop Dogg's touch, remixing the point of interest formerly known as The Agency as The Dogg Pound. It will also bring back the boogie bomb that triggers "Drop It Like It's Hot."
Week 2 will reveal Eminem's takeover of The Grotto as Spaghetti Grotto (a play on his Mom's Spaghetti restaurant in Detroit) with a "Rap God" machine gun that spits out lyrics to the 2013 song.
Week 3 drops Ice Spice's Y2K, New York-inspired Shark Island. Finally, Week 4 will pay homage to Juice WLRD, who died from a seizure in 2021 at just 21 years old. Epic says it worked closely with his mother, estate, and label, Interscope to bring this to life. "Jarad always loved to play Fortnite – it was more than just entertainment for him, it was a way to connect with others,” his mother, Carmela Wallace, said in a statement.
The new season will launch in three phases: on November 1, with The Prelude; on November 2, with the offical launch of Chapter 2, and on November 30, with The Finale, which will be a yet-to-be-announced in-game event. Any players who attend, however, will receive a free cel-shaded outfit.
"We're starting to see artists understand that gaming is an interesting and important place to meet fans where they are," said Nate Nanzer, VP of Global Partnerships, at a press event. "There's a lot of experimentation bringing music and gaming closer together."
Emily Levy, the director of strategic partnerships, said that artists see an 8.7% lift of consumption on streaming platforms after bringing music into the game. "Fortnite has become a necessary stop for artists on their tours, engage on their campaigns, release cycles," she said.
At the same event, Fortnite also announced kicks, a new cosmetic item; players will now be able to pick cusom shoes for their avatars to wear. The first will be a classic pair of Air Jordan high tops.
