Fortnite Moisty Merman Skin and Yeet Emote Leaked In Latest Update

In today’s v4.2 patch on Fortnite that we reported on earlier, a new legendary burst assault rifle was added to the game, apples can now be found underneath trees, and the suppressed SMG has received a buff. What wasn’t mentioned in the patch notes however is these upcoming skins and emotes that were datamined and posted to the /r/FortniteLeaks subreddit. Five skins and five emotes were found altogether, along with some accompanying back blings and harvesting tools, and you can see them all below.

We're definitely picking up the Moisty Merman. Image courtesy of /r/FortniteLeaks.

First up is easily the strangest of the lot; a mutant fish with an enormous mouth, it’s called Moisty Merman and will no doubt be a legendary tier skin for 2000 v-bucks. There’s also a superhero-esque man called Venturion with the v-buck logo on his chest, and male and female characters in matching hazmat suits that are called Toxic Trooper and Hazard Agent respectively. The final skin is a bad-ass looking chap with an ammo belt across his chest and white paint on his shoulders, reminiscent of Rambo, named Bandolier.

Yah, yah, yah YEET yah, yah yah, yah YEET yah...

The emotes are called Snap, Take 14, Zany, Star Power, and Dip. While we haven’t seen them in motion, it’s safe to assume the Dip emote is based off of the internet famous Yeet video. Star Power will apparently cost 800 v-bucks, so is likely an extravagant dance move similar to Electro Shuffle or Disco Fever, while Snap looks a lot like Thanos snapping his fingers in Avengers: Infinity War.

Keep your eyes peeled for all of these items to come to the Fortnite store over the next week or two.
