The future? - live music merging with video games

Korn recently did a performance in 'AdventureQuest 3D'. Late last year The Offspring performed in 'World Of Tanks'. Recently, Travis Scott staged a big concert in 'Fortnite'. The latter is special - "a very different kind of social network" - says Nathan Brown, a video game writer, consultant, and the ex-editor of game industry bible Edge. "It is a pop-cultural phenomenon, yes, but a cross-cultural one as well – a place where Batman can snipe John Wick from halfway across the map, only to get ganked by a 'Star Wars' Stormtrooper while hoovering up the loot. It is the closest thing modern society has to the metaverse”. GQ reports on that particular part of live concert future, merged with video games.
