d4vd has released 'Locked & Loaded', Fortnite’s first official anthem
FNCS debut arrives September 4th, with Lyon championship streaming live on Twitch.
d4vd has partnered with Epic Games to deliver Fortnite’s first official anthem, 'Locked & Loaded (Official Fortnite Anthem)'.
The track is out now and will make its in-game debut in the Fortnite Shop as the official Fortnite Global Championship Series (FNCS) Emote and Jam Track from 4th September at 8pm ET.
'Locked & Loaded (Official Fortnite Anthem)' will also serve as the soundtrack for the 2025 Fortnite Global Championship, which begins on 6th September in Lyon, France, where players will compete for a share of over $2,001,000. Coverage will stream via twitch.tv/fortnite.
d4vd’s route into music began with Fortnite: he started creating Fortnite montages on YouTube in 2021 and began writing original tracks to avoid copyright strikes on his videos.
"Fortnite has been such a big part of my life and it’s what led me to make music in the first place," says d4vd. "Being able to create the official anthem for Fortnite feels like a true full-circle moment. Fortnite gave me a space to be creative and connect with people all over the world, and that same energy is what I wanted to put into this track. It’s more than a song — it’s me giving back to something that’s shaped my story as an artist. And even now, playing Fortnite is still my true passion."
