Delay of Kicks Feature in Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix
The excitement surrounding Chapter 2 Remix of Fortnite has been palpable, especially with players eager to see the Kicks feature showcased in the most recent season’s trailer. This anticipated addition was initially scheduled for release alongside the v32.10 update. However, as of November 13, 2024, developers announced a delay in launching this new cosmetic feature through a post on X.
Reason for the Delay
The Fortnite team stated, “We are delaying the release of Kicks in the 32.10 version while we address a visual issue.” This announcement has caused some disappointment among fans anticipating the Kicks feature.
Unlocking Kicks: Current Players’ Options
Despite the setback, players can still unlock the AJ1 Black Toe Reimagined Kicks through the Battle Pass. However, these items will not be usable for the time being. The developers assured fans, “We’re working on a fix now and will let you know when Kicks will be enabled and will release in the Shop. Additional updates will follow as we gather more information.”

Upcoming Kicks and Customization Options
While details regarding the visual issues remain vague, two cosmetic types are still expected to be available for players in the future. The first is, of course, the AJ1 Black Toe Reimagined Kicks unlockable after achieving a specific level in the Battle Pass. Alternatively, there will also be the Shark Slippers, a unique design introduced by Epic Games.
Looking Ahead: Compatibility and Customization
Though the delay may be a letdown for eager players, the developers have reassured the community in a blog post that the new cosmetic will be compatible with “more than 95% of Outfits” by Spring 2025. This enhancement promises greater customization for player avatars, expanding beyond traditional options such as back blings, pickaxes, and weapon wraps.
Conclusion
As we await further updates, the potential for enhanced character customization continues to generate excitement within the Fortnite community. Players are hopeful for a swift resolution so they can make the most of their Kicks ASAP.
