Fortnite Festival is almost ready for a new season, and leakers have spoiled the secret of who’s up next: Karol G.

The season four featured artist for the musical mode will be none other than Latin pop star Karol G. The five-time Latin Grammy Award winner and four-time Billboard Music Award winner is famous for her reggaeton and urban pop music, along with her sultry dance moves.

Karol G released her fourth studio album, Mañana Será Bonito, on Feb. 24, 2023, but her biggest performance may still be yet to come if and when she graces Fortnite as a featured artist, including her own skin, music, songs, and other cosmetic items.
