Fortnite Joy Skin
The new Joy Skin is a rare Fortnite skin from the Free Skate set that was released on September 4th, 2021. It has returned in cosmetic rotation and is currently available in the shop right now. DahjaCat designed Joy after gaining inspiration from Vitiligo patients, a common skin disease across the world.
Dahja Cat is the Twitter username of the designer who created the original character of Joy in Fortnite. Epic Games chose to add Joy to Fortnite with pale white patches on her skin, and it speaks volumes about the right ideology.
Vitiligo is a permanent skin condition that causes patches of skin to lose their pigment and turn white. Vitiligo tends to spread throughout the body with time and removes pigment from the skin. It makes the skin unique and players can purchase it from the Item Shop for 1,200 V-Bucks.
This item is cosmetic and hence it does not affect the game in any way beyond being a visual modification that also entertains us with its music and the movements of our character when performing the dance.
Epic Games decided to add the Doja Cat ‘Kiss me More’ in Fortnite and the new skin and has been showered with praises by the gaming community fans ever since for this kind snd encouraging gesture.
Doja Cat emote is also a part of the Free Skate Set and is available in the Fortnite Item Shop. This Outfit has a built-in emote called ‘Roller Vibes’ and features the song ‘Kiss Me More’ by Doja Cat. Gamers who buy this will be getting the Doja Cat “Kiss Me More” emote in Fortnite.
