Masters of the Universe Fortnite Skins Revealed (He-Man Emote Explained)
Epic Games also gave us our first look at what the Masters of the Universe Fortnite skins will look like in-game. The crossover will specifically include the following three characters from the classic 1980s animated cartoon:
The three Masters of the Universe Fortnite skins will also have their own additional cosmetic items. For example, each character will have a pickaxe, and back bling. It also appears that He-Man and Skeletor will have their own emotes as well.
HEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA Meme Emote Comes to Fortnite
As we mentioned above, the He-Man Fortnite collab will even include the iconic HEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA meme as an emote. However, it doesn’t stop there. Based on the official trailer, it appears Skeletor will also get two emotes that re-create his cameo in the classic internet meme music video as well.
The HEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA music video was first uploaded to YouTube in 2010. It infamously features He-Man and Masters of the Universe characters doing an awful (or amazing) cover of the ’90s single “What’s Up?” by the band 4 Non Blondes. Well, now Fortnite players can spam the classic meme endlessly in lobbies. I know I will!
