…The three new emotes were just released on Fortnite. And the reaction? Anything from enthusiastic to the absolute opposite. Well, they are debating amongst themselves of course! Those debates would all have to stem from the news spread by ShiinaBR in Twitter-the much-celebrated Fortnite leaker and content creator.
As for installation, the new emotes can be downloaded via the link Shiina gave, with a shoutout to the creator that will receive direct support if used with the code “Shiina.” Cool, huh? Some are just completely excited about it, while others aren’t.
One player actually went ahead and called these emotes “boring” and questioned the 500 V-Bucks price tag. Ouch. Meanwhile, another player was completely high for the sand castle emote, calling it “amazing.” Beauty must really be in the eyes of the beholder-or in this case, the Fortnite locker.
And the drama around these emotes isn’t even the only thing warming up the reply section; players have started questioning, sometimes demanding answers in regard to the pet companions (“Where is Krypto??”) and upcoming collabs. One hopeful fan even put forth their own dream collab with K-pop group Aespa. Hey Epic Games, you should be listening.
It’s all very much a strong debate, about the companions, with players questioning if Krypto is delayed or not since it has not shown up in the Battle Pass. Meanwhile, others are still holding out for the Battle Bus SUV to hit the shop. These businesses are much in demand, folks.
And naturally, no Fortnite update is complete without some spicy accusations being thrown around, one user put ShiinaBR on the spot for ‘lying about Street Fighter for cents and views’. Yikes. Somewhere else down the line, another wild ‘We want Obama’ comment was tossed in. Because, why the hell not?
The conversation about the item shop did not stop there. Players argued over skins, with some touting the current batch as rubbish, some asking for recommendations as to where to spend their V-Bucks, and yet another engaging in a heated debate on whether or not updated files meant the skins in question would return. Spoiler alert: No, they do not.
Then, of course, there was a random shout-out to Bruno Mars, for good measure. No context needed, those are vibes.
So the latest emote drop has gotten the whole Fortnite community buzzing; haters versus lovers and the rest for chaos. Whether you feel strong about the new emotes or are saving your V-Bucks for something else, one thing is for sure: Epic Games really does know how to keep their community engaged… and bickering.
Now, who’s ready for the next random crosswalk? At this rate, anything goes. Maybe even Obama.
