Fortnite fans are obsessed about a rumoured Travis Scott concert, and data-miners may have already found where it’s being held.

Fortnite is no stranger to crossovers. Since it’s release, Epic Games has collaborated with the likes of Disney and Warner Bros. to bring many beloved characters to the battle royale, with Deadpool being the most recent.

However, it’s also had a few real-world icons be included as skins, namely prominent Fortnite player and streamer Ninja, and musicians Major Lazer and Marshmello.

In fact, Marshmello held his own live-concert in the game itself, which managed to attract 10 million players on its first day.

With how popular that was, it should come as no surprise that Epic Games would try something like it again, as it’s heavily rumoured that rapper Travis Scott will be using the game to host a concert of his own.

A Travis Scott skin was leaked recently, and one data-miner by the name of HYPEX believes they’ve found where said concert will be taking place.

According to them, if you head to one of the small islands located between Sweaty Sands and The Shark, you’ll see what looks like a stage being constructed.

Aside from that, Dexerto also reported that one of Scott’s songs, Highest in the Room, can be heard very quietly and briefly at certain areas of the map.

While there has been no official confirmation from either Epic Games or Travis Scott, all the signs seem to point to a live concert happening. The question now is when it will happen, with fans theorising that it will take place this weekend.

Now is probably the perfect time to host such an event, as everyone is stuck indoors at the moment anyway, due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Fortnite is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Switch.
