Fortnite Joy Skin
The new Joy skin is a rare Fortnite skin from the Free Skate set released on September 4, 2021. It is returning to the cosmetic rotation and is now available in store. DahjaCat designed Joy after being inspired by patients with vitiligo, a common skin disease around the world.
Dahja Cat is the Twitter username of the designer who created the original Joy character Fourteen days. Epic Games decided to add Joy to Fortnite with pale white spots on her skin and that speaks volumes about the right ideology.
Vitiligo is a lifelong skin disease that causes areas of the skin to lose their pigment and turn white. Vitiligo tends to spread throughout the body over time and remove pigment from the skin. This makes the skin unique and players can purchase it from Item Shop for 1,200 V-Bucks.
This item is cosmetic and therefore has no effect on the game, except that it represents a visual modification that also entertains us with its music and the movements of our character while dancing.
Epic Games decided to add the Doja Cat “Kiss me More” to Fortnite and the new skin and has since been showered with praise from fans in the gaming community for this kind and encouraging gesture.
The Doja Cat emote is also part of the Free Skate Set and is available in the Fortnite Item Shop. This outfit includes a built-in emote called “Roller Vibes” and features the song “Kiss Me More” by Doja Cat. Players who purchase it will receive the Doja Cat “Kiss Me More” emote in Fortnite.
