What has made Fortnite a growing phenomenon over the past few years is the amount of collaborations Epic Games has brought into the game. The cosmetics from their favorite franchises are what attract many new players, and this is exactly what has been happening with the recent crossover between the game and Avatar: The Last Airbender.
What makes these particular cosmetics special in the first place is how they allow the player to play as one of the favorite characters from their series in a battle royale game mode. Additionally, fans are now just finding out how developers have hidden a secret easter egg with one of the recent skins, and it has made everyone have more respect for them.
Fortnite Hides An Amazing Easter Egg In Collaboration With Avatar: The Last Airbender
As mentioned before, one of the reasons why Fortnite is one of the most popular video game titles in the industry is because of the constant collaborations it brings with other franchises. Apart from Avatar, the game has also managed to collaborate with the likes of DC and Marvel, introducing superheroes from their universe into the game. What makes these collaborations better is the fact that developers seem to add an easter egg, or attention to details revolving around these characters whenever they make their way onto the island.
This time around, as pointed out by users on the internet, it is none other than Toph who has got a cool detail. As every fan with even basic knowledge of the series would know, Toph is a blind character, and the developers have managed to showcase how the same is the case for her character in Fortnite.
What calls for the collaboration between the two is the recent release of Avatar: The Last Airbender Live-Action series on Netflix. The series manages to follow in the footsteps of the One Piece Live-Action series which was released last year and has managed to even beat it in terms of minutes watched by the fans.
Fans React To Fortnite Developers Adding Details About Toph’s Blindness In-Game
As pointed out by this user on Twitter, what makes Toph’s skin special is how her eyes do not move during emotes. For those who do not know, often emotes require the movement of the head and eyes to convey a certain expression, however, the same is not the case with Toph in-game as her eyes do not move, which was showcased with the help of the Crowning Achievement emote.
This is what fans had to say after seeing such a detail in-game-
Just noticed the coolest thing they did with the new avatar skins in fortnite. They made toph accurately blind and her eyes don't move in emotes (notice how she's not looking down in the crown emote). That actually made me gasp with excitement when I found out. pic.twitter.com/Pk2AvnnSr2

You are telling me FORTNITE understood ATLA better than Netflix's live action?

While there are no complaints with the introduction of Zuko, Katara, and Toph in the item shop, some players have pointed out how Epic Games conveniently skipped out on bringing Sokka, another significant character in the series, to the game.
Fortnite is a free-to-play title available on Epic Games Store.
