Sure, nabbing tense Victory Royales thanks to your expert building skills and blasting your way through a Season Pass might be the aim of the game, but Fortnite's huge roster of in-game dances offers up a whole other way to enjoy messing around with your mates. If you like to treat yourself to a new emote or two every now and then, you'll want to check out this competition.
Developer Epic Games has teamed up with TikTok - that video app thingy all the kids like these days. Fans of the game simply need to record a video of themselves demonstrating their own, original dance move before sharing them on TikTok with the hashtag #EmoteRoyaleContest. The winner will not only see their dance become an actual emote in-game, but they'll also receive 25,000 V-Bucks and the following:
- NEFF hoodie
- Sprayground crossbody bag
- UNIQLO hoodie
- Jazwares Battle Bus Drone
- Jazwares Glider Drone
- NERF SMG
- Funko Collectible
- Bitty Boomer wireless speaker
- Trends custom lithograph poster
- Dark Fire Xbox Bundle
- Dark Fire PS4 Bundle
- Jenga: Fortnite Edition
The competition is open worldwide to those aged 13 and up, but you'll want to check out the official rules before entering. One key thing to remember is that you must use the pre-selected Fortnite tracks to dance along to.
With streaming icon Ninja getting his very own skin in the game recently, you'd basically be on the same level - just without the money, fame, and general success. Close enough, right?

"Hi I’m writing this"
@Sean161 Congrats! I see you managed to finish writing that!
This is so trendy it's painful.
Epic Games: "Hmm we need more content for our future revenue. Instead of paying our employee's to create a new emote, we'll just ask the public to create one for us so that later we can sell it back to the masses!"
This is pretty genius. Have the kids do all the work.
I love fortnite, but not gonna lie, that’s pretty cringe...
@Sean161 Dude, you're probably the best I know at "writing this".
I can do my impression of a helicopter but a lot of kids play fortnite.
You don't even need to enter the competition to get your emote into the game. Just post it on YouTube and if it gets enough views, they'll put it in the game without consulting you and, just like this competition, award you by not paying you money to exploit your creativity
Cmon callmecarson win this
@PBandSmelly Now this is something I can get behind
How interested are people in emotes? personally big deal
