Leaked Fortnite Update: Skibidi Toilet Skin in Development

Fortnite is set to welcome the bizarre Skibidi Toilet meme into its expansive universe, and honestly, who can say they didn’t see this coming?

There was a time when the sight of iconic anime characters like Naruto wielding firearms raised eyebrows outside of Fortnite’s fandom. Fast forward to recent updates featuring four different SpongeBob-themed game modes and a talking llama, and that sentiment feels like a distant memory. However, Epic Games continues to keep players guessing with audacious content additions.

Mark your calendars, as the Skibidi Toilet, the most peculiar viral meme of 2023, will hit Fortnite on December 18. This revelation was shared by reliable Fortnite insider Shiina on X, unveiling an exclusive skin that comes complete with a bundle featuring a pickaxe, glider, and back bling – a special treatment that not every character gets.

For 2,200 V-Bucks, players will have the opportunity to venture into battle as a whimsical human-headed toilet. The complete bundle boasts the Plungerman Outfit, the Skibidi Toilet and Skibidi Backpack back blings, along with Plungerman’s signature Plunger Pickaxe.

For those new to the phenomenon, Skibidi Toilet originates from a quirky 3D-animated YouTube series created by Alexey Gerasimov, also known as DaFuq!?Boom!. This series pits human-headed toilets against camera-headed humanoids in a wildly imaginative battle set to remixes of tracks like Timbaland’s “Give It to Me” and Bulgaria’s catchy “Dom Dom Yes Yes.” However, it remains unclear if these songs will accompany the Skibidi Toilet bundle during its Fortnite Festival debut.

This meme has struck a chord with Gen Alpha and younger audiences, yielding a tremendous following and a plethora of spin-offs across platforms like TikTok and YouTube.

Reactions from the Fortnite community have been a mixed bag, sparking debates on whether the game should delve deeper into meme culture or draw a line somewhere. Comments include playful quips about the absurdity, with one user noting how “very skibidi” this move is. Nevertheless, there’s a shared amusement at the thought of battling as a literal human-headed toilet wielding a plunger as a weapon.

Fortnite has established a reputation for unexpected collaborations, ranging from high-fashion tie-ins with Balenciaga to iconic Jordan Kicks cosmetics. The addition of Skibidi Toilet feels particularly unrestrained, even by Fortnite’s standards.

Epic Games has a knack for unpredictable crossovers, and the realm of meme culture offers an abundant source for inspiration. Who knows what might come next? Perhaps we’ll see skins inspired by the confused math lady or the jealous girlfriend memes. One thing is clear: Fortnite is determined to transform every facet of internet culture into a V-Buck treasure trove, and their strategy is proving successful.
