Fortnite's most prominent contribution to pop culture was its in-game concerts, which started with Marshmellow. Following that concert, Epic Games collaborated with Travis Scott for an Astroworld concert, which broke the internet. Since then, Fortnite concerts have become a big deal in the gaming industry.
Recently, reputed Fortnite leakers ShiinaBR and Elbuffaloart highlighted that Epic Games accidentally left a text in the files that says "Used in CH5S3 Metallica Concert," hinting at a possible Metallica concert coming to the game soon. The CH5S3 tagline suggests that the concert will be the next big event for the current Chapter 5 Season 3.
After a string of leaks, Epic Games has finally confirmed the arrival of Metallica with the Fortnite Festival Season 4. Here's everything we know about it.
