Drop Dead Singer Olivia Rodrigo Joins Fortnite Today
Popstar Olivia Rodrigo has joined Fortnite today as the latest celebrity addition to Epic Games’ battle royale through the Icon Series, which features celebrities appearing as themselves in the game.
The three-time Grammy Award winner is launching with two outfits available for purchase in the Item Shop: the SOUR Outfit and Lover Girl Outfit, both featuring reactive styles and LEGO Minifig variants. Players can also purchase associated cosmetic sets, with all items remaining available until July 25. In addition to cosmetics, Rodrigo will appear as an NPC in Fortnite’s Battle Royale mode.
The collaboration arrives following the release of Rodrigo’s third studio album, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart and achieved the biggest launch by a solo artist in 2026.
Rodrigo’s career spans music and entertainment, beginning as a child actor on Disney’s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series before establishing herself as a major pop artist. She’s known for hit singles including “Drivers License,” “Good 4 U,” “Vampire,” and “Drop Dead,” and recently headlined Glastonbury Festival. This Fortnite appearance marks another major milestone in her cross-media presence.
