Many current influencers reached their fame on TikTok, with sounds and dances popular on the app often making their way into Fortnite. However, in the days leading up to Fortnite Chapter Four, season four, it was teased that popular influencer Khaby Lame would be getting a skin in a likely first. Now, a new teaser has given players a look at Khaby Lame in his character’s outfit, going on a new heist.
In the trailer, players can see an acrobat dressed in all black flipping over lasers and sliding across the floor before cutting at a safe door with some kind of tool. Khaby Lame simply walks up to the light switch, flips it on, and does his signature gesture while referencing a sticky note above a password input that has the safe’s password on it.
When the safe opens and the two characters look inside, they realize that the influencer’s skin is being hidden, to which Khaby Lame looks truly bewildered. As opposed to previous Icon skins of real people, Khaby Lame is a part of the battle pass, which means players will be able to unlock him alongside other important characters from this season.
Khaby Lame and his infamous gesture have been faithfully recreated in Fortnite, allowing players to recreate their favorite meme. In addition to the standard character skin, there are also different cel-shaded variations that show the character in different art styles.
