Fortnite launched a massive live event yesterday, ushering the new chapter of the game (Chapter Five, Season 1).
The 'Big Bang' event as it was called featured an animated Eminem concert, which saw 3,291,525 users on Twitch at its peak.
Such was its popularity that many Fortnite fans were unable to get into the event, with the developers announcing more showings.

The event also saw the uber popular Fortnite OG map done away with, and new game modes introduced.
There was also an interactive game mode during the event called 'Fortnite Festival', which allowed those who got in to play a Guitar Hero like game during 'Eminem's' performance.
Limerick woman and WWE wrestler, Becky Lynch, was also part of the event, with her character on stage dancing to Eminem, which Lynch jokingly called out on Twitter.

Well that escalated quickly. Whether you're in the lobby or in a queue, fear not!
We’ll be adding two more showings of The Big Bang after the 2pm ET show.
