Fortnite: Battle Royale – How to dance
Bust a move.
On this page you’ll learn how to dance in Fortnite: Battle Royale, and use your dance emotes to shake your stuff with the very best.
It goes without saying that the main objective in Fortnite: Battle Royale is to track down your enemies and blast them to pieces with your collection of weapons, build defensive forts to keep the rest of the pack at bay, and just generally outlast the competition until you’ve bagged that Victory Royale.
That doesn’t mean you can’t bring a little extra style to proceedings though, and you actually have access to a number of different ways to express yourself on the battlefield. Who knows, you might even make a friend or two along the way?
If that all sounds just a little too reckless for your liking though, the good news is that you can actually bust out some dance moves while chilling in the pre-game lobby area. It’s a nice way to show off your cosmetic purchases, and will certainly make your stand out from the rest of the pack!
