Fortnite Will Let You Pretend Daft Punk Is Getting Back Together This Weekend

Here is a 197-word summary of the news article: Fortnite is set to host a major Daft Punk event this weekend, despite the electronic music duo's breakup in 2021. The event will not be a live performance, but rather an interactive "experience" allowing players to explore Daft Punk's music. The event will feature a new Daft Punk-themed item shop, including skins with distinctive styles and music-reactive elements. Other items include a double-neck guitar-and-bass instrument, emotes for classic Daft Punk songs, and additional music tracks featuring the duo's collaborations with The Weeknd. Notably, the event will also heavily feature Lego, with Daft Punk-themed Lego sets available in the Fortnite shop, including a large pyramid that syncs with nearby music. While not a Daft Punk reunion, Epic Games emphasized that the event is meant to celebrate the duo's extensive musical catalogue. The Weeknd also appears to be heavily involved, with two of the new Daft Punk music tracks featuring his vocals. There are even rumors of a potential fourth Fortnite skin for The Weeknd as part of the event, though this has not been officially confirmed.
