Fortnite Festival will be releasing on December 9, 2023, and that’s the extent of what we really know about this title.

As for how they are monetizing Fortnite Festival, that’s easy to see too. Fortnite Festival is launching with The Weeknd as its first featured musician, and that launch is coming with several cosmetics that you can use while playing the game. The first Festival Pass is coming with these rewards:
