Fortnite accidentally leak unreleased ‘Crab Rave’ emote coming soon

An Epic Games employee will probably find themselves in hot water after an unreleased upcoming emote was accidentally tweeted out, then deleted, by the official Fortnite Twitter on June 30.

The official item shop rotates daily, giving players the chance to purchase cosmetic items for their character, emotes to celebrate their Victory Royale, as well as harvesting tools that can make farming materials slightly less boring.

However, eagle eyed fans on Twitter noticed that something was not right after @FortniteGame tweeted out what items would be in rotation for July 1 – noticing the emote that was announced, wasn’t actual present in the shop.

The tweet told fans to go and grab the latest emote ‘Crabby’ which is definitely Fortnite’s impression of the world famous ‘Crab Rave’ dance.
