"Fortnite Festival Season 10 starts today, and Epic Games has signed up the perfect headliner: Gorillaz, the 'manufactured' cartoon band formed by Blur's Damon Albarn and artist Jamie Hewlett back in 1998. The game has seen some strange collaborations over the years, but fictional band members Noodle, 2D, Russel Hobbs, and Murdoc Niccals look right at home in the animated trailer (see our pick of the best animation software)."
"As a virtual band, they make total sense in the sandbox-style game. Interestingly, despite Gorillaz more recent uses of 3D animation, it seems they've gone with Plastic Beach-era 2D animation here. While it might seem that this would clash with the 3D world of Fortnite, I think the Jamie Hewlett's 2D comic art style works really well in the 3D environment in the trailer."
Fortnite Festival Season 10 features Gorillaz as the event headliner, with animated trailers showing fictional band members Noodle, 2D, Russel Hobbs, and Murdoc Niccals. The Gorillaz appear in a Plastic Beach-era 2D animation style integrated into Fortnite's 3D environment. Players can unlock four Gorillaz outfits, Jam Tracks, and accessories via the Season 10 Music Pass priced at 1,400 V-Bucks. Selected Gorillaz hits including Clint Eastwood and DARE will be available in the Shop, with DARE offering a choreographed emote and On Melancholy Hill as a premium reward. Season 10 also adds music UI 'Good' notes, improved guitar calibration, and a new Main Stage.
