Daft Punk Experience Arrives in Fortnite: Music, Customization, and More

Epic Games continues its tradition of groundbreaking collaborations with the announcement of the highly anticipated Daft Punk Experience in Fortnite.

Beginning September 27, 2024, at 11am PT (2pm ET / 7pm BST), Fortnite players on Nintendo Switch and other major platforms can immerse themselves in a vibrant online celebration of Daft Punk's storied musical legacy. The Daft Punk Experience marks the French duo’s first major in-game presence in Fortnite, giving fans an interactive way to explore highlights from their acclaimed discography.

The event opens with a curated supercut from 'Alive 2007'—Daft Punk’s iconic live album and tour—delivering a dynamic audiovisual show accessible to millions worldwide.

According to Epic Games, "The Daft Punk Experience brings together music, artistry, and creativity in one immersive platform for fans to enjoy." Beyond the concert experience, Fortnite players are granted unprecedented creative control.

You’ll be able to remix a selection of Daft Punk’s songs directly within the game, craft custom music videos using the popular LEGO mode, and acquire new virtual furniture from esteemed designer Hervet Manufacturier.

This integration of music and design offers fans the opportunity to personalize their in-game environments like never before, culminating in a grand afterparty for all participants. Naturally, the event introduces a host of exclusive cosmetic items.

Fans can purchase new Daft Punk-themed outfits, accessories, and décor bundles within the Fortnite eShop.

A highlight of the collection is the Daft Punk Pyramid Build—an interactive homage that illuminates in sync with the event's soundtrack.

These unique additions reinforce Fortnite's mission to blend cultural moments and digital interactivity. The collaboration is timed to coincide with Fortnite Festival Season 10, which itself features major music events, including tracks from headliners Gorillaz.

With multiple music-inspired experiences already running, Fortnite cements its status as a premier destination for entertainment crossovers. Epic Games has not specified the duration of the Daft Punk Experience, stating only that it will be available 'for a while.' Players eager to engage with Daft Punk’s catalogue or explore the latest customization options are encouraged to dive in when the festivities launch on September 27.
