Fortnite is known for its zany emotes, some of which are inspired by viral trends or popular videos. During the game\u2019s rise to fame, it wouldn\u2019t be unusual to see children in public performing their favorite \u201cFortnite dance.\u201d Fortnite has started to partner with creators to develop Icon Series cosmetics in recent history. These include skins of popular streamers and emotes based on TikTok trends. One such emote just landed in Fortnite as a part of the Season 3 Battle Pass, and that\u2019s the \u201cSteady\u201d emote inspired by Dreya Mac\u2019s TikTok dance. Dreya Mac celebrates Fortnite emote Dreya Mac first performed the viral dance alongside FelixThe1st in a TikTok video posted on November 11, 2021. With 25.4 million views and 2.7 million likes, the duo had created a trend that would captivate the app. And it would also catch the attention of Epic Games who would later immortalize the dance as an emote in Fortnite. The emote can be obtained by reaching page 7 of the Season 3 Battle Pass. A day after Fortnite Season 3 launched, Dreya Mac celebrated the release of her emote with a recreation of the dance. This time, she would be in sync with a virtual character from the game. \u201cThis has been in the works for a while with my team and I\u2019m super grateful!\u201d Mac stated, \u201cI made this lil dance up to me &#038; FelixThe1st freestyle one night and it\u2019s continued to push our voices worldwide!\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/dreyamac\/status\/1533948323001942016 Of course, some Fortnite players have taken to Mac\u2019s post to share their negative opinions. However, she clapped back stating, \u201cThese 11-year-olds in my replies telling me the Emote is so bad\u2026 okay? and you smell from gaming all day\u2026 get up and wash your bum.\u201d The emote is a fun energetic dance players can add to their collection, and it\u2019s also a great way to taunt your opponents after they\u2019re eliminated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dreya Mac celebrates Fortnite immortalizing viral TikTok dance Musical artist Dreya Mac has had her viral TikTok dance immortalized in Fortnite, and she celebrated by dancing in sync with the new Icon Series emote.
