Vocaloid Megastar Hatsune Miku Joins Fortnite

Fortnite is gearing up for a major collaboration with Hatsune Miku! Social media teases suggest a potential in-game appearance for the popular Vocaloid, sparking excitement among players.

The Fortnite Festival account playfully reported finding Miku's backpack, while Miku's official account conversely tweeted about its disappearance, adding to the playful anticipation. Leaks point to more than just a Miku skin and virtual concert; a unique pickaxe and a "Miku Catgirl" skin are also rumored.

The highly anticipated event is scheduled to launch on January 14th.

Separately, Epic Games is taking action against cheating in competitive Fortnite. Professional player Seb Araujo was accused of using aimbot and wallhacks in a late December tournament, gaining an unfair advantage and winning thousands of dollars in prize money. Epic's lawsuit alleges Araujo's actions deprived legitimate players of a fair chance to win.
