Vocaloid Star Hatsune Miku Joins Fortnite

Fortnite is gearing up for a visit from several artists and performers, with the highly anticipated arrival of Vocaloid Hatsune Miku seemingly imminent. Recent social media interactions have generated significant player buzz.

The official Fortnite Festival account playfully claimed possession of Miku's backpack, while Hatsune Miku's account responded with a humorous plea for its return, sparking speculation among fans. Leaks suggest the collaboration will extend beyond a simple skin and virtual concert, potentially including a unique pickaxe and a "Miku the Catgirl" skin variant.

The launch is expected on January 14th.

Separately, a reminder about fair play: In late December, professional Fortnite player Seb Araujo was accused of using cheat software, specifically aimbot and wallhacks, to gain an unfair advantage and win thousands of dollars in prize money. Epic Games alleges this gave Araujo an insurmountable lead over legitimate competitors. The lawsuit highlights the unfairness of cheating and its impact on tournament integrity.
