If you’ve listened to the radio anytime in the past year or so, you’ll probably have heard Tones And I’s ‘Dance Monkey.’ The song mixes incredibly catchy lyrics and a boppin’ backtrack to make for a certified floor-filler. Well, the good news for any fans of the song that also like to grind out dubs in Fortnite, there’s an emote that plays the song and has a funky dance to go with it. Here’s how to get the Dance Monkey emote in Fortnite.
Getting the Dance Monkey Emote in Fortnite
- To get the Dance Monkey emote, head to the Fortnite Item Shop from within the Battle Royale mode.
- Scroll to the very top to find the ‘Featured’ section. Here, you’ll find the ‘Dance Monkey’ emote available for 300 V-Bucks.
- Select the ‘Dance Monkey’ emote from the shop and confirm that you want to purchase it.
This will mean you’ll need to either already have the V-Bucks in your account, or purchase them with your hard-earned cash. If you’ve bought the premium Battle Pass, you can also earn V-Bucks by leveling it up.
- Purchase it before 3pm PT/ 6pm ET on Jan. 20, 2022 before it leaves the Item Shop.
The emote is part of the ‘Icon Series’ and its description reads: “A slow, shy shimmy for the battlefield. Introduced in Chapter 3, Season 1.”
Epic Games also created a quick trailer showing off the emote, included below.
