Fortnite has depicted a way for loopers to express themselves on the battlefield. This creates a trend that motivates these players to obtain various amounts of emotes to use. Emotes are a basic inbuilt-game mechanism provided to players, usually in online Battle Royale lobbies.

Over the years of Fortnite, the player-base has seen the introduction of more than 100+ emotes in-game. Emotes can be obtained through the Battle Royale Item Shop, Battle Pass, Challenges, or come Built-In with certain skins.

Surprisingly, there are some unique emotes that haven't had a lot of appearances in-game for players to obtain. This creates certainty for them to become rare cosmetics.
