Maximum Bounce

What is the lore behind Maximum Bounce in Fortnite?

The Maximum Bounce is a fan-favorite Icon Series Emote in Fortnite. This Emote uses the song VIBR8 by Marshmello from his GRAMMY-nominated album, Shockwave. The choreography for this Emote was done by dancer and mentor Josh Curtis. The official description for this Emote reads, “Music by Marshmello, dance moves by josh3thousand.”

While there is no lore attached to it, the addition of Marshmello and related cosmetics may support the multiverse angle of the game’s storyline. Marshmello is probably from another universe and entered the world of Fortnite with these cosmetics. While these are pure speculations, this theory is well supported by the fact that Epic Games put a lot of emphasis on the term Melloverse during the promotion of the Bundle that includes Maximum Bounce.
