Epic Confirms Daft Punk Crossover in Fortnite: Dates, Times, Skins, and Event Details

Epic Games has officially announced that Daft Punk is the latest music icon crossover coming to Fortnite, with an interactive event called The Daft Punk Experience.


Ahead of that, new cosmetic bundles inspired by the legendary French duo will hit the Item Shop.


Unlike Fortnite’s past concerts with Travis Scott, Ariana Grande, or Marshmello, this is not a live show. Instead, it’s a fully interactive playground designed to immerse players in Daft Punk’s world, blending music, combat, dancing, and even LEGO creations.

When Does the Fortnite x Daft Punk Event Start?

The crossover has two rollout dates:

  • September 25, 2025 – Daft Punk cosmetics arrive in the Item Shop.

  • September 27, 2025 – The Daft Punk Experience goes live in Fortnite’s Discover tab at 2:00 PM ET, with a pre-event lobby opening at 1:30 PM ET.


These events will unlock simultaneously worldwide. Here’s a quick look at some key regions:

  • US East (ET): Sept 25, 8:00 PM | Sept 27, 2:00 PM

  • US West (PT): Sept 25, 5:00 PM | Sept 27, 11:00 AM

  • UK (BST): Sept 26, 1:00 AM | Sept 27, 7:00 PM

  • Europe (CEST): Sept 26, 2:00 AM | Sept 27, 8:00 PM

  • Australia (AEST): Sept 26, 10:00 AM | Sept 28, 4:00 AM

  • New Zealand (NZST): Sept 26, 12:00 PM | Sept 28, 6:00 AM


What Is the Daft Punk Experience?

Epic describes this collaboration as a “fully interactive playground” rather than a one-time concert. It features four themed areas:

  • Robot Rock Arena – Blast waves of robots with sound-based weapons.

  • Dream Chamber Studios – Remix Daft Punk tracks and experiment with music creation.

  • Around the World – Create LEGO-style music videos.

  • Daft Club – A social hub for dancing and chilling with other players.


The entire map was built using UEFN (Unreal Editor for Fortnite), and it syncs to a playlist of 31 Daft Punk songs.


While there’s no new music being introduced, as Epic made clear in its FAQ, “The band is not getting back together.” Instead, this is a celebration of their existing catalog, letting players remix and mash up classics like One More Time and Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.


Cosmetics, Jam Tracks, and LEGO Bundles

No Fortnite collab is complete without skins, and Daft Punk is no exception. Starting September 25, players can pick up themed bundles in the Item Shop.

A Different Kind of Fortnite Music Collab

This isn’t the first time Fortnite has worked with major music artists, but The Daft Punk Experience is setting itself apart. Rather than a one-off show, it’s more of a persistent playground that will remain available “for a while” after launch. And while some fans might be disappointed that Daft Punk isn’t reuniting, Epic put it best in its announcement: “The band may be no longer, but their music lives on in Fortnite.”


For long-time fans of Daft Punk and Fortnite players alike, this crossover feels like a chance to step inside the duo’s futuristic world — and maybe lose ourselves to dance one more time.
