Epic Games confirmed that Lisa will be the main star of Fortnite Festival starting on November 29, 2025, which is also when Chapter 7 Season 1 begins. Her label, LLOUD, shared the announcement by posting the Fortnite x Lisa artwork, giving fans their first look at her Icon Series skin. Players immediately got excited, and the teaser quickly gained millions of views on social media.
With this, Lisa becomes the latest musical artist in Fortnite Festival, joining other major stars like Lady Gaga, Gorillaz, Bruno Mars, and Metallica.
First Look at Lisa’s Icon Series Skin
Lisa’s Icon Series outfit is one of the biggest parts of the collaboration. In the promo images, she’s wearing a sleek black futuristic bodysuit with glowing pink and purple details. It gives her a cool cyber-warrior look that had been prominent in her recent album themes.
Players will get two main versions of her skin:
- Stage Queen – a bold, performance-ready outfit
- Casual Cool – a simpler, more relaxed look
Both skins are part of the Icon Series. As with past Festival collaborations, Lisa will have two versions of her skin: one tied to the Music Pass and one available through the Item Shop.
The Fortnite Festival Lisa set will also include matching cosmetics like a glowing keytar, microphone-themed items, back blings inspired by BLINK lightsticks, and special emotes.
Jam Tracks and How to Unlock Items
Lisa’s Jam Tracks will likely include some of her most popular solo songs, such as Money, ROCKSTAR, and FCK UP THE WORLD. This means players can perform her hit tracks directly in Fortnite’s rhythm mode.
Players can also unlock her cosmetics in different ways:
- Premium Music Pass (around 1,400 V-Bucks)
- Festival XP rewards
- Direct purchase from the Item Shop
- Fortnite Crew membership, which grants automatic access
With so many options, the Fortnite Festival Lisa event is easy for all players to enjoy — whether they want to buy everything right away or unlock items slowly throughout the season.
Why Lisa is the Fortnite Festival S12 Headliner
This crossover with Lisa makes her the first K-pop soloist to headline a Fortnite Festival season. Her global fame, popular songs, and massive fanbase make her a great fit for Fortnite’s music-focused mode.
Her Fortnite debut also follows many major achievements, including Billboard chart hits and her viral performance at Coachella 2025. Adding her to the game is another sign of her growing worldwide influence and brings even more star power to Fortnite’s music lineup.
Conclusion
The hype around Fortnite Festival and Lisa keeps growing. Her addition could also lead to more K-pop artists joining Fortnite in the future. Players will get new outfits, music, and fun cosmetics, making Season 12 exciting for both Fortnite fans and BLINKs.
