I’ve been writing about video games, television and movies for Forbes for over 10 years, and you may have seen my reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. I cover all manner of console and PC games, but if it’s about looting or shooting, I’m definitely there. If I’m watching something, it’s usually science fiction, horror or superheroic.
Celebrating"In America: An Anthology of Fashion" at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 02, 2022 in New York City. If you still doubt the reach of Fortnite in 2024, look no further than the fact that it is launching, in part, the first single off the album of recent Oscar-winner, Billie Eilish , Fortnite has just come out with a new video previewing the song, CHIHIRO , which has racked up 350,000 views in just 13 hours on Eilish’s page.
This promotion comes with the launch of another Billie Eilish skin variant, where we already got a couple a few weeks ago. This one features a red and black Eilish with wings, presumably channeling the music video which we have yet to see in full, but we get a preview of it here. The video has a number of people heading toward some sort of red light, and by the end, it seems like it’s being mixed in with some Fortnite Unreal engine footage.
Fortnite has changed its musical ambitions from large-scale concerts in the battle royale map or its non-combat island to Fortnite Festival, a new, separate game mode where players can use their skins to play real-life songs from dozens and dozens of big artists. Sometimes, there are large-scale crossovers and what they’re doing here with Billie Eilish seems like the biggest collaboration we’ve seen from the mode so far.
The album, HIT ME HARD AND SOFT, has release date of May 17, a week from now. The debut of this video and skin now is meant to spark pre-orders for the album but jokes on them, I already pre-ordered it. What? I love Billie Eilish. Though buying her actual skin in Fortnite may be a bridge too far for me given how infrequently I play that game now.
So, a cool collaboration here and I cannot wait for the full song and the album itself. It sounds great even in this short clip.Our community is about connecting people through open and thoughtful conversations. We want our readers to share their views and exchange ideas and facts in a safe space.
