Grab your mangas, have the latest anime episodes ready, and off to Fortnite. That's right: Fortnite will have a collaboration with the international K-pop superstar band BTS.
Epic Games will try to expand its Party Royale mode. Recently, the concert series has just started, and now we have other stars in front of our noses besides these great artists.
On the main stage of the Party Royale map, we can now watch the choreographic music video for "Dynamite" - the latest English language single from BTS. The Korean boyband is going through the roof internationally and has drawn worldwide attention to South Korea and its songs. "Dynamite" made it to number 1 in the Billboard Hot 100 charts for two weeks and also achieved a record of over 101.1 million views in the first 24 hours.
