With the brand new album up for preorder, Sabrina’s probably going from digital peacekeeper to real-world chart-topper once more this yr (in my humble opinion, not less than).
Alongside the pop star’s inclusion earlier in April 2025, Epic’s nonetheless busy throwing concepts on the wall to maintain Fortnite sticky, whether or not it’s superhero seasons, that weird Star Wars mode with zero precise ammo, or the brand new Blitz Royale experiment.
Participant numbers have dipped since final yr’s chaos-fuelled highs, Squid Recreation maps, Physician Doom boss fights, Instances Sq. live shows, and an in-game spectacle starring Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Ice Spice, and Juice Wrld, however there’s motion once more.
Whether or not any of this helps Fortnite claw again floor from Roblox hits like Develop a Backyard stays to be seen. But when getting Sabrina Carpenter in-game helped begin that rebound? Epic received’t thoughts using the vibe somewhat longer.
