The Astronomical event will run from April 23 to April 25 and is inspired by the creations of Cactus Jack, which is the record label founded by Scott in 2017.

There are five showtimes to allow Fortnite players around the world to participate:

  • April 23, 7 p.m. ET
  • April 24, 10 a.m. ET
  • April 25, midnight ET
  • April 25, 11 a.m. ET
  • April 25, 6 p.m. ET

“Doors open” 30 minutes before each show, so players should come in early to secure their spot. Once capacity is reached, players will need to catch the next time slot.

Posters for Astronomical have started appearing in the game, with a UFO that looks to be made entirely out of speakers flying in the sky. Epic Games has not yet confirmed where the shows will be held, but players have spotted a stage under construction on an island near Sweaty Sands.

Scott is also the newest addition to Fortnite‘s Icon Series, allowing players to secure his skins and other cosmetics in the game’s Item Shop starting April 21. The game will also roll out a set of Astronomical challenges, with rewards that include a new Travis Scott spray, profile picture, and emote.

Fortnite OG Season 3 Battle Pass: How to get & all items
Fortnite OG Season 3 Battle Pass skins

Fortnite's OG mode has captured players by returning to the game's roots, and the OG Pass serves as the foundation for each season's nostalgic appeal. When OG became a permanent mode in December 2024, Season 1 brought Chapter 1's first days to life. Its OG Pass included updated versions of classics like Renegade Raider, Aerial Assault Trooper, and Skull Trooper spanning 45 tiers, combining simplicity with rewards that echoed 2017's grungy charm. The pass went wonderfully with the bare-bones map and Double Pump meta, causing a surge of excitement among OG fans.

Season 2, which premiered on January 31, 2025, increased the stakes with the return of Tilted Towers and a new OG Pass. This time, players had access to reinvented versions of Sparkle Specialist, Black Knight, and Cuddle Team Leader, as well as gliders, pickaxes, and back blings inspired by Season 2's vivid vibrancy. The incentives, which were split across free and premium tiers, worked perfectly with the season's larger map and loot, keeping the OG enthusiasm alive.

Virtual Game Cards: what they are and how they work
Virtual Game Card

Sharing games has been a major topic ever since digital games have become more and more prevalent. We haven't reached the point where you can't get the best Switch games physically anymore, but it is more convenient to simply download a title than make the trip to purchase one. That raised the question of how sharing games would work in a digital library. Game sharing on Xbox and game sharing on PlayStation both work in a similar way, and Nintendo already has a solution as well, but Virtual Game Cards are a new way to share games with more people more easily. It is a little complex to understand and get going, so we'll break it all down so you can be ready to share the next upcoming Switch game.
What are Virtual Game Cards?

In short, Virtual Game Cards are a way to share games from your digital library with anyone. They are meant to act exactly like a physical game card, meaning you can "give" it to another person to play for a duration of time before it returns back to you. Once the feature launches, any digital game you buy will also come with a Virtual Game Card. This is another way you can manage your digital library on you Switch, but also share them.
