Chappell Roan finally has her own ‘Fortnite’ character after pleading for one

Chappell Roan has been confirmed as the headliner of Fortnite Festival season 13 – check out all the details below:

Chappell Roan’s inclusion in Fortnite was first teased last month and yesterday (Tuesday February 3), developers Epic Game officially confirmed that their collab with the ‘Good Luck, Babe!’ singer will kick off tomorrow.

As headliner of Fortnite’s rhythm spin-off game Festival, players will be able to buy a trio of Chappell Roan skins inspired by her onstage outfits. There’s a pink and a red version of the standard Chappell Roan skin that recreates “fan-favourite Pink Pony tour fits” while the Roan Of Arc outfit is “inspired by Chappell’s medieval-glam performance at the 2024 VMAs.”

Players can also get hold of a Pink Pony sidekick, the Pink Pony Star back bling, a Midwest Princess keytar and a new Pink Pony Club emote as part of the collab.

Fortnite Festival’s Main Stage has been reworked to channel Roan’s fantastical stage design from last summer’s ‘Visions Of Damsels & Other Dangerous Things’ tour and ‘Pink Pony Club’, ‘Good Luck, Babe!’, ‘Hot To Go’ and ‘The Giver’ are available as Jam Tracks.

The Chappell Roan x Fortnite collaboration goes live tomorrow (Thursday February 5). Sharing the news on Instagram, Roan wrote: “I got my own Fortnite skin!!! Wowowow!”

Chappell Roan is a big Fortnite fan and last year, revealed that her ideal night in would be spent playing the hit game. “If I want to have a really good night, I’ll just eat an edible and play video games. If I’m trying to have fun out, I’ll take shrooms,” she told the BBC after being crowned the Sound Of 2025 winner. She went on to use the interview to beg Epic Games for her own character. “Please give me a skin. Please!”

“When Chappell Roan asks for her own Fortnite outfit, we give her her own Fortnite outfit,” wrote Epic Games on X.

Previous Fortnite Festival headliners include Billie Eilish, The Weeknd, Metallica and Sabrina Carpenter.

In other news, the first wave of titles heading to Xbox Game Pass this February have been confirmed by Microsoft.
