In Fortnite, there has always been a lot of dancing. Now a competition has been launched to appeal to TikTok dancers – and it offers an interesting prize.
Fortnite is looking for the “Emote Royale”: After Fortnite already searched for new emotes in 2018 with the “Boogie Down Contest“, the dance casting is now in its second round. However, it is in slightly altered form.
This is TikTok’s role: The competition, renamed “Emote Royale”, will this time take place exclusively on TikTok. Anyone wishing to participate needs an account on the platform. There, one can submit their dance idea to a track specified by Fortnite with the hashtag #EmoteRoyaleContest and thus enter the competition.
The young target audience is likely the focus here. Both TikTok and Fortnite can expect to gain new players and users from this action. The prize is likely to be worth a lot to many players.
Immortalize in Fortnite – the dream of many players
What is the significance of the prize? Aside from the fact that the winner receives 25,000 V-Bucks and a Fortnite package, the prospect of having their own emote is likely to motivate many players to participate.
In Fortnite, the community plays a big role. Whether as a content creator like Ninja, who even has his own skin now, or in the form of creative mode. In Fortnite, players have various ways to at least make themselves noticed.
For example, the “Orange Shirt Kid” gained great recognition. A boy tried to get his dance into the game during the last competition. Although he did not win the contest, the video became extremely popular. And in the end, the dance still made it into Fortnite – which led to legal disputes.
Another story showed an 8-year-old boy who invented a skin for the game and was then surprised when the “Tender Defender” suddenly appeared in the game. Ninja also had long desired his own skin – and was ultimately rewarded.
It shows: For many players, it is a dream to be immortalized in Fortnite. Even the streamer Pokimani was able to fulfill this:
