After hosting a series of successful performances from the likes of Travis Scott, Diplo, and many others, Fortnite's Main Stage will feature popular reggaeton musician J Balvin.
The Halloween-themed event will take place on October 31st at 9PM ET, and a rebroadcast of the performance will be shown later on so that any fans who are unable to make the first performance still have a chance to catch it.
Gamers are encouraged to dress up for the performance in costumes to show their Halloween spirit. In the Fortnite Item Shop, they'll find an array of different looks that they can choose from, including a new take on the Party Trooper Outfit, which is available for a limited time.
