There has also been an array of 4th of July emotes that Epic Games has added into its popular battle royale title, such as the classic 4th of July tradition of lighting a sparkler. 

This is not the first time that Epic Games has created a set of skins and other cosmetc items for specific holidays, as the developer of the popular battle royale game has created custom cosmetic items for Halloween, Christmas, Valentines Day and more. 

Now with the new Fortnite Fireworks Team Leader skin, sparkler emote and other new 4th of July cosmetic items available for purchase in the daily item shop, the community will be available to share the cheer of the holiday while competing for those precious victory royales when they are not swimming or cooking some delicious food.

Seeing a great deal of success with its in-game cosmetic items, it will not be surprising to see Epic Games continue to create new skins and other items for many more holidays to come, as the community has taken a likening to acquiring these seasonal skins that soon become wanted by the rest of the community who did not purchase them at the time, such as the Skull Trooper skin from Halloween.
