Fortnite will soon be hosting its biggest in-game event since Travis Scott‘s glorious psychedelic astronomical marvel. The “Rift Tour” event will be running between 6th-8th August and will be headlined by none other than, Ariana Grande.
In the past as well, Epic Games has teamed up with several celebrated stars such as Popular DJ Marshmello, this show held in February 2019 raked in about 10 million people. In 2020, Epic Games partnered with Rapper Travis Scott and this show brought in 12 million people. Epic Games must be hoping for the same from this year’s “Rift Tour”.
