A new Fortnite setting will let players avoid seeing ‘confrontational emotes’
Epic Games has announced a new Fortnite setting that will let players toggle visibility on four emotes that “can sometimes feel a bit overly confrontational”.
The new ‘See Confrontational Emotes’ setting will be introduced on Tuesday as part of Fortnite’s v29.30 update.
It will apply to four emotes: Laugh It Up, Take the L, Whipcrack and Make It Plantain.
“Players who choose this will see a player using the Emote standing still, with no Emote sound,” Epic said.
“The new setting can be found under ‘Social Privacy’ and will default to only show these Emotes from friends in your party. You can change this setting any time, so you can see these Emotes from ANY player or not at all.”
Samus Aran missed out on an appearance in Fortnite because Nintendo wanted the character to be exclusive to the Switch version of the game.
That’s according to Epic Games’ former chief creative officer Donald Mustard, who said in a new interview that Epic had wanted the Metroid mascot to appear in the game alongside Kratos form God of War and Master Chief from Halo.
Earlier today, it was announced that singer-songwriter Billie Eilish is coming to Fortnite.
Confirmation that Eilish is joining music experience Fortnite Festival on April 23 arrived just days after the star’s appearance in the game was included on what’s claimed to be a leaked 2024 content roadmap image.
