It’s officially here!
Today is the official kick-off of the Dubai Summer Surprises Summer Party, featuring Fortnite and PS4 (in partnership with ITP Live) at Dubai Festival City Mall.
The gaming extravaganza will take place at Festival Square from July 25 to Aug 3, 2019 – and we couldn’t be more excited to swing by and play a few games of Fortnite with our favourite content creators.
“Dance Royale” challenges will also be taking place throughout the 10-day event, and fans will have the opportunity to show off their Fortnite dance skills on stage for a chance to win TONS of prizes.
Players will also be able to choose whether they want to play Fortnite in either Arabic or English, as the recently-launched Fortnite Season 9 (and soon-to-be launched Season 10 on Aug 1) offers versions of the game in both languages.
