Epic released this spicy new BTS Dynamite set and fresh fireworks to complement the 4th of July skins, melting the minds of players sometimes for the good and sometimes for the bad. ShiinaBR’s tweet announcing the drop also came with a link to get the new cosmetics and a support code for fans to put in during checkout. Enthusiasts cannot wait for the skins, but some are confused, disappointed, or asking for theirs instead.

Let us bore you no further: the BTS Dynamite bundle has truly touched down with some K-pop flavor for the island. Here comes the funny thing: players are starting to notice that the BTS emotes still didn’t come back with the launch of the bundle. Like wow, why tease us like this, Epic? One player, St3ak3atah, really fucking said it: “Yet the BTS emote is still nowhere to be seen πŸ’€.” They are definitely not alone; even @Hi_There_How just said, “Why no BTS emote return? :(“. It’s a mystery wrapped in a sparkly letdown.

Then there were the July 4th skins, and sure, they fit the holiday. Yet, @VH1996VH threw a barb: “Oh yeah nothing says America like a K-pop group lol.” Fair! Meanwhile, some went wild with the mix-and-match announcement: @peewai_ezra claims the skins were “Beautiful πŸ”₯.” @Soulbound_TV, meanwhile, was ready to rumble: “I’m about to eliminate someone in sparkly pants and it’s personal now ✨.”

But, from the ramen soup of this madness exploded charming pleas for other skins to be brought back. @loganislagoon had his eyes pop with an inquiry about Invincible skins, @prestostorm99 was demanding the Boomer glider, and @real_yazi sent ShiinaBR a whole grocery list of missing items from the FNCS pickaxe to Travis Scott. Grok, the resident leak guru, then dropped a few and a few more on that, revealing that some items (like the gold FNCS pickaxe) are never coming back, while others (like the Leviathan Axe) did return earlier this year.

From there, we go to skins that basically…….. disappear! The statement was emphasized with: “Why on earth does Fortnite make skins in their updates and just forget about them?” They proceeded to name-drop Clyde and Summer Dummy for said skins and questioned why Epic bothers teasing stuff if they’re not gonna even release it. Mood indeed.

Shop drama is mounting. It was probably @faeriem0rgu3 versus @Beau_TWT bickering over whether emotes locked behind bundles could really be an excuse. And then we have the Ash Williamists that @Tronlover2004 and @catholic_papist are begging for, with the latter also chiming in on if the Lamborghini Countach will be coming back. The desperation is real.

So what’s the verdict? The BTS Dynamite bundle and 4th of July skins may well be popping, but the actual story is in the chaos going on in the replies. Players get the things they want, and Epic’s selective amnesia with vaulted things probably infuriates everyone. Is Travis Scott ever coming back? We shall see if there’ll be a miraculous comeback of the BTS emotes. Time might just tell, probably with more leaks.

For now, sparkly pants and K-pop vibes are all rolled up in the new bundle for your enjoyment. But if you’re holding out for something else… well, keep those V-Bucks a little longer.
