The series, made with Valve’s Source Filmmaker, has captivated millions online with its unique style and bizarre premise.
The addition of Skibidi Toilet to Fortnite reflects the game’s ongoing commitment to collaborating with pop culture phenomena. From Marvel superheroes to anime legends, Fortnite continues to expand its multiverse of crossovers, and Skibidi Toilet is the latest to join the lineup.
