Fortnite\u2019s Item Shop and Battle Pass is often being constantly refilled and replaced with brand-new skins and cosmetics for players to access. Over the years, the game has become widely known for its various crossovers and collaborations with various pop culture franchises. This has included anything from Eminem to Marvel, to this season\u2019s Solid Snake, Family Guy, and TMNT collabs. One crossover that has been highly demanded by the community is a collab with hit Netflix show Wednesday. However, despite leakers seemingly discovering that Jenna Ortega\u2019s viral dance was finally coming to Fortnite in the form of an Emote, once it landed in the Item Shop, players soon realized it was completely unrelated. Fortnite players disappointed after Epic trolls with new Emote Various data miners had continued to uncover a whole heap of new information and files found in the build-up to the v28.20 patch and upcoming TMNT event. One of which being an unnamed Emote. Trusted leaker HYPEX revealed: \u201cJenna Ortega seems to be getting a Fortnite Emote based on her dance in Wednesday!\u201d Yet when the update finally dropped on February 7, 2024, it was found that the Go With the Flow Emote had nothing to do with Wednesday and the dance, as HYPEX replied to the post: \u201cnvm\u2026.\u201d Waves of players flooded the comments section to express their disappointment: \u201cThey knew what they were doing with that pose\u2026\u201d As another added: \u201cclassic Fortnite trolling the community.\u201d Many called it a \u201clet down\u201d and echoed that they would have purchased the Emote: \u201cDamn I was about to cop this in a heartbeat but nvm.\u201d With Epic Games having a history of collaborating with popular Netflix shows, such as Stranger Things, and Wednesday already being greenlit for Season 2, then it is not out of the range of possibility. However, Epic have not provided any suggestion or information so far that would point towards a collab in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite players convinced devs trolled them with Jenna Ortega dance bait Epic Games \/ NetflixFortnite players are convinced Epic Games baited them with the new Go With the Flow Emote added to the Item Shop after leakers had believed it was going to be Jenna Ortega\u2019s viral Wednesday dance.
