70 Years of Disneyland with New Fortnite: Inside the Disneyland Game Rush Celebration

For seven decades, Disneyland has been the place where stories, attractions, and characters leap from imagination into reality. Now, for its platinum milestone, that magic is taking a bold step into the digital world. “70 Years of Disneyland with New Fortnite” isn’t just a catchy phrase—it’s the heart of a brand-new, interactive way to celebrate the park’s 70th anniversary: Disneyland Game Rush, a custom Fortnite Creative island that turns legendary attractions into playable adventures.

Whether you’re a lifelong Disney fan, a Fortnite regular, or a curious newcomer, this collaboration offers a surprising mix of nostalgia, action, and family-friendly fun—all wrapped inside a limited-time virtual event.

A Virtual Hub Built for 70 Years of Magic

The experience starts the moment you load into Disneyland Game Rush using the island code 4617-4819-8826 in Fortnite Creative. Instead of lining up at the turnstiles in Anaheim, you arrive in a celebration hub—a digital plaza designed as a love letter to 70 years of Disneyland history.

At the center stands a shimmering anniversary sculpture inspired by Sleeping Beauty Castle, rendered in Fortnite’s stylized graphics but still instantly recognizable to anyone who has walked down Main Street, U.S.A. Around the skyline, you can spot silhouettes and structures that echo Space Mountain, Matterhorn, Pixar Pal-A-Round, Incredicoaster, and other icons from Disneyland park and Disney California Adventure.

Softly glowing lights, celebratory music, and subtle nods to park details tuck fans into that familiar “I’m really at Disneyland” feeling—just now in digital form. This is where up to 12 players gather before being whisked away into a rotating playlist of mini-games, each one a playful reinterpretation of a beloved attraction.

It’s here, in this hub, that 70 Years of Disneyland with New Fortnite truly comes alive, blending decades of park history with one of the world’s most popular live-service games.

Seven Mini-Games, One Big Tribute to Classic Attractions

Disneyland Game Rush is built around seven distinct mini-games, each modeled after a famous ride but redesigned to fit Fortnite’s mechanics. Rather than trying to recreate every detail of each attraction, the island focuses on capturing their spirit, atmosphere, and key moments.

1. Space Mountain: Rocket Race

Inspired by the legendary Space Mountain coaster, Rocket Race trades coaster tracks for high-speed grind rails in space. Players race along glowing rails, jumping between them to dodge collisions and collect special coins. The darkness, star-filled backdrop, and classic space adventure feel give strong callbacks to the original ride—just now with more chaos, competition, and Fortnite flair.

2. Star Wars: Stormtrooper Showdown

Drawing from Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, this mini-game drops you into a First Order battle zone. Armed with blasters and lightsabers, players team up with the Resistance to blast through waves of stormtroopers. Each defeated enemy drops coins to boost your score, while the setting channels the cinematic scale and energy of Galaxy’s Edge.

3. Haunted Mansion: Scavenger Haunt

Few attractions are as iconic as the Haunted Mansion, and Scavenger Haunt leans into its eerie charm. The game begins with a familiar stretch-room style introduction before doors swing open into a moody manor and foggy graveyard. Players explore, solve light puzzles, discover hidden passages, and collect coins tucked behind spectral surprises. References to happy haunts and ghostly gags reward fans who know the ride by heart.

4. WEB Slingers: Spider-Bot Blasters

Inspired by WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure in Avengers Campus, this mini-game turns the arena into a chaotic workshop overrun by multiplying Spider-Bots. Your job? Use the environment, aim carefully, and blast as many bots as possible before time runs out. It’s structured like an arcade shooting gallery, blending superhero energy with Fortnite’s familiar shooting mechanics.

5. Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Sneakout!

Here, the towering structure of Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT! becomes a stealth-oriented challenge. In Mission: Sneakout!, players weave through the Collector’s fortress, avoiding detection, traps, and environmental hazards while racing to escape. It’s more about timing and navigation than pure combat, offering a different flavor of tension.

6. Indiana Jones: Tomb Runner

Taking inspiration from Indiana Jones Adventure, Tomb Runner is all about speed and reflexes. From a top-down view, you sprint through a trap-filled temple, dodging spike walls, lava flows, and giant rolling boulders while snatching up coins along the way. The tone is frantic, pulpy, and adventurous—exactly what you’d expect from an Indy-inspired challenge.

7. Matterhorn: Slip-and-Climb

The Matterhorn Bobsleds become a vertical playground in Slip-and-Climb. Players race up a steep, icy mountain using jumps and grappling hooks. The twist? Some coins apply icy debuffs, making your character slip and slide just when you think you’ve secured the lead. It’s a perfect digital echo of the unpredictable, bumpy charm of the original bobsled ride.

Each mini-game is short, energetic, and designed to keep the entire lobby moving. Over a full session, you’ll cycle through all seven experiences, seeing just how varied this tribute to 70 years of Disneyland with New Fortnite can be.

Keys, Coins, and Cosmetics: Unlocking the Magic

Disneyland Game Rush doesn’t just stop at attractions-inspired gameplay; it layers in progression and cosmetic rewards to keep you exploring.

The Key to Disneyland

Every mini-game hides one “Key to Disneyland”—a special collectible that isn’t guaranteed on your first run. You’ll need to replay each mode, learn its layout, and spot hidden corners if you want to grab them all. Once earned, keys can be taken to a lock station kiosk in the hub, where they randomly unlock one of several gold-themed cosmetic rewards exclusive to this island.

It’s a subtle but smart way of encouraging repeat visits and exploring every nook, much like visiting the real park and noticing new details each trip.

Shop Royale: 70th Anniversary Style

Alongside the key system, there’s also the Shop Royale, a whimsical pumpkin-carriage item shop decorated in a special Disneyland 70th anniversary color palette. Here you can spend the coins you’ve collected from mini-games and hidden present boxes scattered around the hub.

The cosmetic lineup includes:

• Anniversary-themed hats, like celebratory Minnie ears and character-inspired headgear

• Back accessories styled as commemorative backpacks or references to park icons

• Auras and effects that surround your character with nods to Disney magic—think ghostly companions, sparkling pixie trails, or cosmic glows inspired by Marvel artifacts

These items are meant as souvenirs of your time on the island, echoing the feeling of picking up special anniversary merchandise during a real-world visit.

A Family-Friendly Bridge Between Park Fans and Gamers

More than just a marketing tie-in, this collaboration sits at the intersection of nostalgia, accessibility, and digital experimentation.

• For Disney park fans, it’s a chance to see beloved attractions reimagined from a fresh angle. Hearing a familiar soundtrack, spotting iconic props, or recognizing a ride layout—even inside Fortnite—can deliver a surprising emotional hit.

• For Fortnite players, it’s a break from intense Battle Royale matches and ranked modes. Disneyland Game Rush is intentionally lighthearted, designed for casual, drop-in sessions, making it a perfect space to hang out with friends and family.

• For families, it offers a shared activity: parents who grew up going to Disneyland can introduce their kids to these attractions in a playful, gamified way, even if a trip to California isn’t currently possible.

Importantly, the mode avoids heavy competitive pressure. There are scores, winners, and rewards, but the tone is celebratory rather than sweaty. In many ways, it mirrors the original park’s goal: a place “where parents and children can have fun together”—now reinterpreted through the lens of 70 Years of Disneyland with New Fortnite.

A Glimpse of Disney’s Bigger Digital Future

This island also hints at a larger strategic direction. In 2024, Disney announced a multi-billion-dollar partnership with Epic Games, signaling an ambition to build a broad “entertainment universe” that connects its brands—Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and more—inside gaming ecosystems.

Disneyland Game Rush feels like a first, focused prototype of that vision:

• A themed hub reminiscent of a digital park entrance

• Multiple experiences stitched together into one shared space

• Cosmetic rewards tied to IP and anniversaries

• Cross-generational appeal aimed at both nostalgic adults and younger players

If this is what “70 Years of Disneyland with New Fortnite” looks like today, it’s easy to imagine future expansions featuring other parks, lands, or seasonal events. Halloween overlays, holiday overlays, or even multi-park experiences could all logically build on this template.
