Battle Stage

Metallica x Fortnite
Epic Games

Fortnite has an exciting challenge prepared for Metallica fans! Battle your opponents across a four-song setlist to be the last one standing.

Each Fortnite Battle Stage match begins with up to 16 players. They compete to get the highest score on a randomly chosen song from the Festival’s featured rotation. You’ll play the same track as other players but can choose your song part and difficulty. The four lowest-scoring players are eliminated at the end of each song until there’s a single winner!

  • What's interesting is that owned Jam Tracks cannot be selected, ensuring no one has an advantage based on their familiarity with the song.

Find the Battle Stage on Fortnite's Discover page next to “Festival Main Stage” and “Festival Jam Stage.”

Festival Pass Tab Quests

Fortnite players can complete the Festival Quests for this season by entering the Lobby of a Fortnite Festival experience (“Main Stage,” “Jam Stage,” or “Battle Stage”) and navigating to the Festival Pass via the top navigation!
