Disney’s annual D23 fan event will take place Saturday, August 10 and it seems the media conglomerate has some special Fortnite announcements on the schedule.

In February, Disney CEO Bob Iger announced that the company had invested over $1 billion in Fortnite developer Epic Games.

According to variety.com, Iger said this will be its “biggest foray into the game space ever” and will “offer a multitude of opportunities for consumers to play, watch, shop and engage with content, characters and stories from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, Avatar and more.”

The D23 panel will be hosted live by Josh D’Amaro who serves as the parks and experiences chief along with some mysterious special guests whose identities are being kept under lock and key for the time being.

When is the Fortnite live event?

The D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event will include Fortnite and Disney collaboration reveals live from the Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase, which will stream exclusively in Fortnite on Saturday, August 10 at 7:30 p.m. Arizona Time.

What is the Fortnite countdown for?

Many players have experienced a mysterious countdown appearing on the Fortnite island as Chapter 5 Season 3 comes to a close.

Since the D23 live fan event will be announcing a special collaboration with Fortnite, it’s likely that this countdown is leading up to the live event which will take place exclusively in Fortnite on August 10.

Don’t worry if you miss the event, Fortnight will keep the livestream playback on loop until August 16.
