Fortnite visual glitch turns Wings of Icarus invisible

A rather unique Fortnite visual glitch is turning the Wings Of Icarus invisible. It is unclear how this discovery was made, but players have been zooming through the sky, seemingly propelled by God-like powers. Despite having the item equipped, there is no visual trace of it. While this is not an issue as such, not being able to see Wings Of Icarus does make the user a smaller target when up in the sky.

Hence, it allows them to be more discreet while zooming past their opponents. Nevertheless, the Wings Of Icarus still function as intended and lose their charge over time. In retrospect, it's not a competitive disadvantage in the grand scheme of things. In fact, the community would very much like to keep this Fortnite visual glitch in-game on a permanent basis.

Players want Wings Of Icarus Fortnite visual glitch to stay in-game

Most visual glitches can be alarming and sometimes hamper gameplay, but this particular one has captured the imagination of the community. Similar to Midas' golden touch Fortnite Festival visual glitch, it makes things better. As mentioned by players across numerous online forums, the Wings Of Icarus being invisible when flying is a visual treat.

Flying using Superhero Fortnite Skins such as Omni-Man, Invincible, Atom Eve, Goku, Vegeta, and Superman feels radically different and very satisfying. In a way, it's more lore-accurate than flying using wings. To an extent, it makes things feel more natural and does not even feel like a Fortnite visual glitch for the most part. Here is a video of a player using Wings Of Icarus after activating the visual glitch:

Looking at the numerous comments on the post, it's clear that the community absolutely loves this. As such, several users have left instructions on how to replicate it in-game. Since this is not a glitch that players can use to gain a competitive advantage, it is safe to execute in-game.
