The biggest Disney fan event of the year, D23, is happening this weekend, and it will be streaming exclusively on Fortnite. This unique partnership between Disney and Epic Games is bringing the “Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase” to the popular battle royale game, offering fans a glimpse into the future of Disney-Fortnite collaborations.
To view the stream within Fortnite, all you need to do is follow three simple steps:
-
Enter the “Disney Horizons Live” island. This can be done via the Homebar in Discover or by using island code 7908-6413-2516.
-
Stay on the island for at least 10 minutes. This simple action will reward you with the exclusive Peelverine Plush Back Bling, a hilarious mashup of Wolverine and Peely. It's not a true exclusive, however, and will be available in the Shop at a later date.
