Fortnite has been hosting concerts for a very long time. It once looked like they would completely change how performances are seen and done, but they haven’t exactly become the norm in the game over the years. However, based on a new leak, Snoop Dogg is set to perform a concert. It’s been a little while since the last one, and it looks like players won’t have to wait very long to enjoy this one.

There Will Be a Fortnite Snoop Dogg Concert
According to Fortnite leaks, the recording artist best known for Drop It Like It’s Hot is coming to Fortnite to perform. It is unclear based on the leak if he will get the full collaboration with skins and cosmetics, but so far, everyone who has performed has gotten that.
Snoop is typically known for more adult music, so it will be interesting to see how Fortnite balances that with its younger audience. That hasn’t stopped them from adding artists to Festival mode, though.
Snoop Dogg joins a long list of artists who have performed in some way in Fortnite. Eminem was the last one to do it, but Marshmello, Travis Scott, and Ariana Grande also did it. Over the years, live events have sometimes been concerts.
In most instances, these are used to simultaneously be a concert as well as progress the storyline ahead. Eminem’s brief concert was the primary way the game shifted from OG into Chapter 5.
It appears that that’s what Epic Games is planning here. If the concert happens in November, that means it will almost undoubtedly be within the Remix season (Chapter 2 OG). Assuming they have a live event to transition from Remix to Chapter 6, then Snoop Dogg is probably going to play the Eminem role. Eminem’s concert was surprisingly brief, though, so Epic might allow more time for Snoop to perform for Fortnite players.
The leak did not specify a date. Since Remix ends at the end of November, it is likely going to occur then. Keep in mind that this is a leak. It’s not guaranteed until Epic Games confirms it, or it happens in the game.
