Here’s When Skibidi Toilet Arrives In ‘Fortnite,’ The Dawn Of A New Era
Fortnite is known for its outrageous character skins, and recently we've seen everything from Godzilla to Mariah Carey set to join the game in just two days. But tonight marks the start of something new. Fortnite is going even further into the digital realm by introducing the popular Skibidi Toilet meme into the store.
I'm not certain it's necessary to dive deep into what Skibidi Toilet is, since you probably either get it or you never will. In a nutshell, it consists of a series of videos created using Source Filmmaker that took YouTube by storm, racking up tens of millions of views and becoming a standout meme among younger audiences. Curious to check it out? Here you go:
I'm not here to criticize. Think about all the silly and ridiculous memes we had as millennials while we were growing up. When I say "Badger" or "Banana," does anything pop into your head? If you're around my age, you definitely get it. It's similar to Fortnite adding new skins.
What’s on the horizon and when can we expect it? The shop refresh happens tonight at 8 PM ET, and that’s when Skibidi will make its debut in various forms. Leaked information suggests there will be:
Recently, a Skibidi emote gained popularity online, but it turned out to be a modification instead of an official release. As far as I know, there isn't an actual Skibidi Toilet emote available.
There’s something unique about this collaboration that stands out from previous ones. We've seen plenty of unexpected Fortnite skins in the past, but this one feels truly exceptional. It seems like we’re on the brink of a new era—one where there will be a clear distinction between the time before Fortnite introduced Skibidi Toilet and what comes after it. Nothing will be the same again.
Make sure you have your V-Bucks ready for tonight if you want to join in on the meme frenzy that's about to take off in the game. I’m pretty sure this will be one of the biggest skin releases we’ve seen in ages, and I'm both excited and a little anxious to see all of them in action.
