Travis Scott event in Fortnite
It looks like the Travis Scott skin that was leaked a few months ago in Fortnite may finally be here as the in-game teaser seems to confirm some sort of Travis Scott event or introduction, as well as new leaks.
Back in February insiders found a cosmetic set with the name of Travis Scott, but so far he has not officially been added to the game.
The Houston-based rapper and producer is known to have been a fan of the game, he participated in some matches with Drake and Ninja in 2018, and now he can finally get his own event/performance apart from the skin.
On April 16, the leaders reported that in the game files appeared new event "Jerky" , and apparently the playlist used for the Marshmello event was also named "Jerky" in the files, meaning it could have been something similar.
Now, teasers have been revealed in the game that almost confirm Travis Scott's performance is expected. The main one is the ending to his song "The Tallest in the Room", which plays quietly in certain areas of the map.

In addition to playing music, players have also noticed new posters for the event scattered across the map. They don't say much, but they do have a music logo alluding to an event in the game.
The leaders then transcribed an audio and texture file that would likely be used for the event. Around the purple zone, it's like fair rides like roller coasters and carousels.
This will be in line with the theme of Travis Scott's latest album, Astroworld, which was installed at the fairground. At his live performances, he even had a fully functioning roller coaster.
