James, Lars, Kirk, and Robert. These four are the Icons of Fortnite Festival Season 4! But they’re not just here to perform — they’re here to battle. Season 4 brings a new experience that’ll stick around after Season 4 ends: the PvP Battle Stage! 16 players enter, one will emerge victorious. (It’s a musical free-for-all!) Bring the heat to the Battle Stage, Jam Stage, or Main Stage to progress in the Season 4 Festival Pass!

RIDE THE LIGHTNING IN BATTLE ROYALE

Be a flash before enemies’ eyes — Ride the Lightning guitars will be on the Battle Royale Island! These instruments are as mobile as they are musical… Use one to create a lightning arc in the sky that your squadmates can ride. On your descent, come crashing down to bring the beginning of an enemy’s end. Get this guitar from the ground or Chests!

Ride the Lightning isn’t the only way to go sky-high. In the middle of every match, the floating Metallica Loot Island will rift from a hole in the sky. It’s no dream or lie — atop this island is a stage inspired by the M72 World Tour! Rock out to the holographic James, Lars, Kirk, and Robert to capture the POI and let loot loose (including Ride the Lightning).

Competitors can play up to ten matches within their region’s three-hour time window, and the specific event timing for each region can be found in the “Compete” tab in-game.

(Note: Once a player participates in a region in any competitive event during Battle Royale Chapter 5 Season 3, they will be locked to that region for any subsequent sessions of that event, as well as all sessions for future events in the Season.)

Scoring will follow the format below:

MATCH PLACEMENT

Victory Royale: 62 points

2nd: 52 points

3rd: 45 points

4th: 40 points

5th: 35 points

6th: 30 points
