Fortnite Festival, the game’s Rock Band-like music mode where you play along with real songs, is getting local multiplayer for up to four people on PlayStation and Xbox on January 14th.
Currently, you can only play Fortnite Festival multiplayer online, but with this change, you’ll be able to get your former Rock Band back together and jam out on the same TV screen — well, with a major asterisk. Fortnite Festival currently only supports certain Rock Band guitar controllers, so if you’re on vocals or drums, you’ll be relegated to playing on a controller.
Epic Games didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment about when drum kit or microphone support might be added to Fortnite Festival.
The new local multiplayer mode is being added as part of season 7 of Fortnite Festival. The featured artist for the season is rumored to be virtual pop star Hatsune Miku — and Epic Games is has already dropped a hint that she might be joining Fortnite soon.
