Fortnite celebrates the Nintendo Switch 2 launch with a new emote
Friends, the big day is here. It’s Nintendo Switch 2 launch day, and Epic Games clearly feels the need to celebrate right along with you, as Fortnite has a free, exclusive emote for Switch 2 players. While I’ll never say no to a freebie, the Fortnite Wishing Star Emote feels a bit redundant. What do I have to wish for now that I have my beloved new console? Okay, I could wish for a lot of things, so perhaps I should say thanks to the battle royale game for giving me the chance to wish for new and exciting RPGs, horror games, and more for the Nintendo Switch 2 library. The emote is exactly what it says on the tin: you grab a shooting star, make a wish, and send it on its way. If you didn’t secure a Nintendo Switch 2 pre-order and instead need to wait a bit longer to grab the new bit of hardware, Epic is giving you plenty of time to pick up the new Fortnite emote. You have until March 31, 2026, to add the Wishing Star Emote to your collection, and even if you still have a Switch 2 by then, it “may be available for purchase in the Fortnite Shop at a later date beyond March 31, 2026.” Continue reading Fortnite celebrates the Nintendo Switch 2 launch with a new emote MORE FROM POCKET TACTICS: Fortnite Creative 2.0 codes, Fortnite Prop Hunt codes, Fortnite Deathrun codes
