Easy Life will be the first UK band to perform a set inside Fortnite Creative as part of a week-long celebration of London's The O2 venue.

The London venue is available to explore in Fortnite's Fortnite Creative mode this week, and will feature a performance from Leicester's Easy Life, who released their debut album life's a beach last month.

Easy Life will be the first UK act to perform in Fortnite. Their set, which will be available for three days from Thursday (24 June), will feature songs from life's a beach.

The new addition to Fortnite will mark the first time The O2 has been featured in a video game, and will allow players to explore hidden rooms, backstage areas and the O2 Blueroom.

Easy Life's Murray Matravers says, "Being the first UK act to ever perform in Fortnite Creative, and for that performance to take place inside a venue as iconic as The O2, is truly humbling. life’s a beach is a deeply personal album that marks the culmination of our life’s work and we can’t wait to finally perform it for our fans. We’re so excited for people to experience our music in the game – it promises to be a lot of fun and is just a taste of things to come ahead of our UK tour of O2 Academy venues later this year."

Easy Life's life's a beach album is out now.
