Peacemaker’s dance emote will return to Fortnite now that Epic Video games is glad it had nothing to do with Nazi imagery. Following the reveal of the HBO present’s current season 2 twist, the corporate implied it was involved the dance strikes intentionally recreated a swastika. The emote will now return subsequent week, with modified animations.
“We’ve worked closely with our partners at Warner Bros. Games to confirm there were no creative intentions to connect the Peaceful Hips Emote and the current Peacemaker storyline,” the Fortnite account on X posted on Wednesday. “To avoid any confusion, we’re modifying the Emote choreography in next week’s update. If they prefer, players can return the Emote without using a ticket.”

Spoiler warning: we’re about to say some main plot factors from Peacemaker season 2.
This entire factor began after the alternate universe that John Cena’s Chris Smith has been exploring this season was revealed to be one during which Hitler’s Germany gained WWII and America is now run by Nazis. If you happen to then went again and seemed on the dance within the Peaceable Hips Fortnite emote, which is meant to be the one Cena does within the season 2 intro, you possibly can type of see that perhaps there’s a swastika in there someplace in case you overlay a number of freeze frames.
Epic Video games then pulled the emote and stated it might examine to see if this had been completed by somebody at Warner Bros. on objective. It appears the corporate is now glad that it was simply an unintended coincidence. However what followers actually wish to know is that if the dance will truly sync as much as the music this time the best way it’s choreographed within the present. We’ll know when the emote returns throughout Fortnite‘s reset subsequent week on October 9.
