What’s New
Calling all Livies: Olivia Rodrigo is here, with a setlist in Festival, including her new single drop dead that you can sing along to with Karaoke, now on mobile. Find Olivia next to the swing on the Battle Royale Island and jam near her to unlock the free Heart Locket Spray and Loading Screen.
Karaoke is now available for Fortnite Festival mobile players!
Head to the Backstage, select Karaoke, and sing along to all your favorite Jam Tracks on iOS and Android.
For the best experience, we recommend using headphones, and make sure to run Tune Up to get your audio dialed in before you start.
Mobile displays Karaoke lyrics in a static style, meaning all lyrics stay on screen at once rather than scrolling. If you prefer this style on other platforms, you can switch to it at any time in Settings > Game > Festival > Karaoke.
You now have more control over the original vocal track volume while playing Karaoke. Choose from three volume levels to find the right balance for your performance — find the option under Settings > Game > Festival > Karaoke.
Festival Jam Stage
Extra loops will now continue playing even after the player who started them leaves the jam. This means you can drop out without killing the vibe for everyone else. As long as at least one player remains, the music keeps going. If you ever want to stop a loop manually, just highlight it and select Stop Loop.
Introducing Snap to Vocals — a new button in the Change Tempo/Key menu. Hit it to instantly sync the jam's tempo, key, and mode to match the original vocal track, making it easier than ever to keep everything in tune.
