Fortnite Pranks Doja Cat with “Embarrassing” Weapon She Dislikes

In a surprising and somewhat cheeky move, Fortnite has taken to trolling musician Doja Cat by reintroducing a weapon she once deemed embarrassing. This playful jab has sent shockwaves through both the gaming and music communities, perhaps marking one of the most entertaining crossovers in recent times.

Doja Cat is not just a random celebrity figure in the Fortnite universe. She has actively engaged with the game, streaming gameplay and even making headlines when she unfriended an ex live on stream. Her candid critiques about sweaty players and problematic weapons have resonated with many fans, as evidenced by a viral post from May 2024, where she expressed that Fortnite would be significantly less “f*cking embarrassing”without the notorious Chains of Hades.

Fast forward to Fortnitemares 2025, where Doja Cat took center stage not just as a performer but as an in-game boss. While other characters like Wednesday Addams and Scooby-Doo also featured in this update, Doja’s imminent presence stood out, capturing fans’ attention even ahead of the official release.

As part of her new cosmetic bundle, Fortnite introduced a weapon that Doja Cat was notably vocal about disliking. Named the Thorn Ripper, this weapon is a reimagined version of the infamous Chains of Hades, which had previously dominated the competitive landscape.

Prior to her bundle release on October 9, Doja took a playful jab at the weapon on Fortnite’s official X account, declaring: “DONT TALK TO ME ABOUT CHAINS OF HADES.” She further engaged the community by tagging fellow streamers @moistcr1tikal and @WhoDontai for duos.

The complete Doja Cat bundle is priced at 3, 200 V-Bucks, featuring dual Doja skins, the Claw Swords, various emotes, back blings such as Agora and Scarlet Wings, the Mother’s Mic pickaxe, and her popular track “AAAH MEN!”

While Doja Cat has yet to respond to the revamped Chains of Hades, she did hint at her keen interest in playing Fortnite by mentioning she’d be “playing Fortnite all day tomorrow.” Fans may catch her live on Twitch at dojacattington.

Additionally, Fortnitemares 2025 offers players engaging content, including a free Pig skin that can be unlocked through limited-time quests and exclusive Twitch Drops.

The most talked-about aspect remains Fortnite’s bold decision to gift Doja Cat the very weapon she previously rejected, making it a memorable moment for both her fans and the gaming community at large.
