A handful of songs reference controlled substances (e.g., “Popping like we drug dealers, sipping Crissy, bubb' macking”; “Drugs started feelin' like it's decaf”; “Making a living off my brain, instead of 'caine now”).

Parental Notes
While many parents praise the gameplay experience, they caution that Fortnite Festival may not be suitable for younger kids. The game includes mild profanity, with some song lyrics containing words like “sh*t” and references to suggestive material. Additionally, a few songs mention controlled substances, which some parents find concerning. The game is centered around music and rhythm, with no violence, but the suggestive themes and language lead many parents to recommend it for teens 13 and older. In-game purchases and user interactions are also notable elements, which may require parental guidance.
