The final week of Fortnite Battle Royale’s Chapter 2 Remix is here with a celebration of Juice WRLD and culminating with Remix: The Finale — an in-game interactive concert event featuring Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Ice Spice, and Juice WRLD taking over Fortnite in spectacular style.
Starting today, in honor of Juice WRLD, the WRLD Point Landmark begins to blossom on the map and grow throughout the week. As a special thank you to players for the outpouring of love for his music, we’re bringing forward and expanding the window to claim the cel-shaded Slayer Juice WRLD Outfit for Fortnite players.

THEN, on November 30, 2024, at 2 PM ET, Remix: The Finale will connect dreamscapes from Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Ice Spice, and Juice WRLD in an immersive concert event that will take over the Battle Royale Island. Continuing the celebration of Juice WRLD, the chapter-ending finale will also feature an exclusive world premiere of the new Juice WRLD track, “Empty Out Your Pockets” which will be added as a bonus track to Juice’s final album ‘The Party Never Ends’ on November 30th.
“Jarad always loved to play Fortnite – it was more than just entertainment for him, it was a way to connect with others. From a young age, video games were a part of how he bonded with friends and family, and being in Fortnite is an incredible tribute to that connection. I know he would be overjoyed to see how his love for games continues to bring people together across different spaces, just like his music does.”
Carmela Wallace, Mother of Jarad Anthony Higgins “Juice WRLD”
About Juice WRLD:
Juice WRLD — born Jarad Higgins in 1998 — grew up in Calumet Park playing piano, drums, and guitar, turning to rap freestyling in high school. Influenced by rock music and Chicago drill from Lil Durk and Chief Keef, Higgins initially began recording as Juice TheKidd, a moniker derived from his haircut, which resembled 2Pac’s in the film Juice. Juice WRLD became a Top 10 hitmaker, delivering introspective lyrics atop melodic production, with echoes of Travis Scott and Post Malone.
His heartsick 2018 debut Goodbye & Good Riddance (2018) — which peaked at number 15 on the Billboard 200 and home to his biggest hit “Lucid Dreams” — reflected a wide range of stylistic influences: R&B instrumentation, dreamy beats, and even indie rock melodicism. The momentum built by “Lucid Dreams” (currently 11x RIAA-certified Platinum), helped land Juice’s sophomore effort, 2019’s A Death Race for Love, which topped the Billboard 200 and was soon RIAA-certified Gold. Months later, at the height of his mainstream popularity, he tragically passed away after having just turned 21. At the time of his death, Juice had three singles in the Hot 100 and both official LPs in the Top 100.
His posthumously released album Never Die in 2020 crowned the Billboard 200 and was followed by Fighting Demons in 2021. His verses have appeared on records with the likes of Ellie Goulding, Benny Blanco, BTS, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Halsey, Justin Bieber, Brent Faiyaz, Eminem, Marshmello, and more. To date he’s been part of over 80 RIAA-certified Gold and Platinum records.
