Fortnite Festival's Harmonious Evolution: Instrument Support Coming?

Integrating instrument peripherals is said to be a "top priority"
by Natalie Collazo on December 10, 2023   

Fortnite Festival, the latest rhythm game from Harmonix, has taken the Fortnite universe by storm. As players groove to hit tunes like The Killers' Mr. Brightside and Billie Eilish's Bad Guy, the question of using instrument controllers arose.

Harmonix studio director Alex Rigopulos shared insights regarding this, revealing that, while support won't be available at launch, integrating instrument peripherals is a "top priority". Although specifics are yet to be disclosed, this blog post suggests more information will surface in the new year. 

Epic Games Targets Instrument Controller Support for Fortnite

In a week of notable developments, the introduction of Lego Fortnite and the collaboration with Rocket League for Rocket Racing marked significant milestones. Fortnite Festival, a creation of Harmonix, brought rhythm gameplay into the mix, leaving fans eager to know if their old Rock Band controllers would find a place in this musical adventure.

With the prospect of fan excitement and curiosity in mind, Rigopulos assured that these instruments are a work in progress, emphasizing that such support is actively being pursued, with details anticipated in the upcoming year.

"Not at launch, but it's very much a priority for us to support instrument peripherals in the game. It's something that we're actually already actively working on. We don't have anything specific to say about it yet, other than it's coming."


As Chapter 5 of Fortnite unfolds, revealing sub-games and welcoming iconic characters like Family Guy's Peter Griffin and Metal Gear's Solid Snake, the integration of instrument controllers adds another layer to the evolving Fortnite experience. Keep an eye out for further updates as Fortnite Festival sets the stage for an even more immersive gaming venture in the coming months.
