Aya Nakamura in Fortnite, a concert and an emote from the French singer ?
For over a year now, Epic Games has been running the Soundwave Series on Fortnite. The concept is simple : from time to time, an artist or content creator is highlighted in the game. This highlighting can be done in several ways, with skins or cosmetics linked to the person or even the creation of a concert in the Party Royale mode if it is a musical artist.
Many artists have already been able to take part in this series, such as Ninja, Pokimane, Emicida and Gen Hoshino. According to many leaks, the next person to be part of it should be Aya Nakamura, the famous French singer ! An emote related to the artist should be coming to the game soon, as well as a concert, according to the leaks !
Aya Nakamura's concert and emote soon in game ?
This Wednesday, July 6, Fortnite is releasing patch 21.20, which brings some new features to the game. Among those found by datamancers, there is the "Girlfriends" (copines in French) emote of Aya Nakamura ! This should be available shortly after the update is complete, either the same day or in the days following.

On top of that, an Aya Nakamura concert should soon be organized in the game ! This experience had already been announced by Epic Games several months ago but without a date. It was simply stated that:
"Over the next few months, Australian singer-songwriter Tones And I, Brazilian rapper Emicida, Japanese pop artist and music producer Gen Hoshino and record-breaking French-Malian singer Aya Nakamura will all have their own dedicated experience in Fortnite." (source)
There's still no word on when it will take place, but if the emote comes out in the next few days, the concert shouldn't be long now either ! While waiting for more information, discover the new skins of the 21.20 Fortnite patch !
