After two months of Metallica, Fortnite Festival is taking on a very different vibe in Season 5 with Colombian superstar Karol G, whose pop and reggaeton stylings are more in line with the first three Festival seasons. The start of a new season means it's time for a new Festival Pass, and purchasing the pass for 1800 V-Bucks will immediately unlock the Karol G skin.
This season's pass, which includes both free and paid tracks, looks quite different from last season's, which isn't very surprising since the headliner this time is an individual person and not a band with four members. In the just-concluded Season 4 Festival Pass, we got a skin for each member of Metallica on the paid pass, but only got a single Metallica song, One, on the paid part of the pass.
This led to some grumbling from Festival fans who preferred to get more jam tracks from their Festival Pass purchase. Those folks will be happy with this pass--in addition to a jam track from Karol G, we've also got a jam track from each of Avicii, Afrojack, and Ava Max.
There's also, in a happy surprise, more instruments in this pass than we got on the Season 4 pass with a mic stand, two guitars and two keytars--the most instruments on a Festival pass since Season 1. But sorry, drummers--no drum kits this season. Through five Festival seasons, only two drum kits have been included on a pass, and none have been given as quest rewards.
On top of the songs, instruments, and the Karol G skin, the Season 5 Festival Pass has a variety of other types of cosmetics, including auras. Scroll on to see every item you'll find in the Fortnite Festival Season 5 pass.
