Fortnite kicked off the remixed Chapter 2 season with a Snoop Dogg and Ice Spice concert

Fortnite turns the clock back again. After some teases, Epic is about to kick off a new era in the battle royale game called The Remix: Chapter 2 – and it’s not just looking back in time, it’s integrating music in an ambitious new way.

The launch of the remixed season was preceded by a musical event, similar to the Eminem concert that ushered in a new era for Fortnite. This time around, Snoop Dogg and Ice Spice took the stage – both in-game and IRL in New York’s Times Square – and once the season kicks off, the musical aspects will take things a step further.

As the name implies, the new mini-season brings back many of the characters, gameplay elements and locations from the game’s second chapter, which launched in 2019. Chapter 2 was especially notable because it erased the original Battle Royale map and started over. for the first time. (The Chapter 2 card itself was set to be swapped out in 2021, when it dramatically flipped.) The month-long event will change things up weekly, with new elements themed around a different musical artist. Snoop Dogg is up first, followed by Eminem, Ice Spice and culminating in Juice WRLD.

The remixed version of Chapter 2 kicks off on November 2 and runs through November 30, with Epic teasing a “final” event to wrap things up. A new cosmetic item is also introduced: kicks, so you can put a pair of Nikes on Peely the banana.
