Celebrate the beginning of the new Fortnite Season with the next Soundwave Series artist! The Soundwave Series is a series of musical shows featuring artists from around the world, and the spotlight now turns to Japanese pop artist + music producer Gen Hoshino. Hoshino’s show will air back-to-back for 72 hours starting Thursday, June 9, 2022, at 8 AM ET — just a few days after Chapter 3 Season 3 launches on June 5!
Each show in the Soundwave Series takes place in its own unique, interactive experience. That includes Hoshino’s show and the show of the next artist: record-breaking French-Malian singer Aya Nakamura! Nakamura will have her own show to experience in Fortnite in the future. Keep an eye out for details in the coming months on this Soundwave Series event. 🎵
Made by creator team 3D Lab, Hoshino’s interactive experience puts players in an evolving space, with changing colors, scenery, and activities to match the mood. At the end of this highly emotional performance, players should not only feel more connected with Hoshino, but also themselves!
Among the songs featured in the show is “Koi,” from Hoshino’s award-winning album Pop Virus. Also released as a single, this J-pop track was such a hit that the “Koi Dance” — from the song’s music video — became a sensation too. Show your moves by activating a Koi Dance Emote during the interactive "Soundwave Series: Gen Hoshino" experience!
