Every year, Fortnite hosts a cluster of events for its players. While some of these events cater to the game’s complex storyline, others are a celebration of real time festivals.
Players around the world have already witnessed Fortnitemares and Winterfest in 2020; naturally, Epic Games would love to end the year with an equally exciting New Year’s event.
Fortnite News, in a recent tweet, shared the visuals of the celebration in the upcoming event. Apparently, a huge rift will open up and a plethora of fireworks will occupy the sky while the Fortnite community welcomes 2021.
