Internet sensation, Hatsune Miku, to have her song, Melt, come to Fortnite

It is a big day for fans of online singing voice synthesizers, as the popular singer, Hatsune Miku, is having one of her most popular songs, Melt, added to Fortnite.

The popular character has become a sensation online amongst millions of people, and while she has already appeared in Fortnite and Rocket League in the past, it would seem as if the online singer is ready to include more music in the Battle Royale.

Hatsune Miku is making her way to Fortnite: Everything we know

Just a few months ago, Hatsune Miku found herself in the world of Rocket League and Fortnite. The collaboration was a huge hit and many found themselves utilizing the singer's specialized car in Rocket League and her Skin in Fortnite.

However, despite Rocket League being a very popular game, Hatsune Miku's first appearance in Fortnite was infinitely more popular.

Despite leakers also providing insight into Hatsune Miku's new song coming to the Battle Royale, Fortnite, itself, actually posted a teaser on Twitter today.

The post above, when translated from Japanese to English, says "Melt I feel like I'm going to melt." I think you can easily come to the conclusion that Fortnite is referencing Hatsune Miku's hit song, Melt.

As confirmed by leakers, it would seem as if Melt is coming to Fortnite Festival as an official track. However, we could easily see the song get an emote, too, for players who main the Battle Royale.

Release date

While there is no actual release date, the fact that Fortnite already made a post about it means Hatsune Miku's Melt will probably be released in Fortnite in the next day or two.

Who knows, it could maybe even be released today, as today is Hatsune Miku Day (Yes, she has her own holiday).

Who is Hatsune Miku? Why is she so popular?

A lot of people reading this may be wondering just who Hatsune Miku is and why she is so popular. Well, that is a very valid question.

Hatsune Miku is a Vocaloid Synthesizer. Designed to look like an anime character, the singer has over 100,000 songs on the internet. She sort of resembles the idea of a V-Tuber, except ANYONE can make music using her voice.

What makes Hatsune Miku so popular is the community behind her, as everyone comes together to develop her hits.

The origin of "Melt"

The song Melt was first released back in 2008, and it features the vocals of Ryo, a popular Japanese artist. The song marks one of the earlier appearances of Hatsune Miku on the internet, as it was only released one year after she was created.

The song tells the story of a young girl who chooses to pursue a boy she has a crush on, changing her appearance in the process to get his attention.

Below are the full lyrics to Melt in both Japanese and English:

I woke up in the morning
朝目が覚めて

The first thing that comes to mind is you
真っ先に思い浮かぶ君のこと

I took the plunge and cut my bangs.
思い切って前髪を切った

I wanted to be asked, "What's wrong?"
「どうしたの？」って聞かれたくて
