Must. Resist. Filthy. Boob. Wordplay. The world’s most popular game – one that’s played by millions of kids – now has jiggly virtual breasts. This is gonna end well… Update: Epic Games responded to VG24/7 about its breast physics update, and it seems the entire thing may have been an accident. “This is unintended, embarrassing, and it was careless for us to let this ship. We are working now to fix this as soon as possible.” As we mentioned in the original story, Fortnite was supposed to have breast physics before Epic Games removed the feature. But if the code was simply deactivated and not deleted, it could have been activated accidentally. Either way, you should expect it to vanish by the next patch. Original Story: Fortnite Season 6 is now out in the wilds, and though it obviously wasn’t mentioned in the most recent patch notes, it looks like booby physics have snuck into the battle royale phenomenon. While the addition of pets and a new Battle Pass is swell and all, no amount of cutesy cartoon dragons is gonna save Little Timmy when his mum walks in on Jiggle Fest 2018. The freshly moving mammaries were spotted by a member of Fortnite’s Faze clan, who shared a gyrating gif of the offending bazongas on Twitter: The most important thing in the Season 6 update pic.twitter.com/FrnzFsF1Fl — FaZe Agony (@Agony) September 27, 2018 Previously, female breasts in Fortnite were completely static, just as Video Game God intended. Now though, it’s clear Epic has decided to shake things up with virtual gravity. Calamity, who appears in the video above, is wearing the new Western Wilds costume, though she can eventually be upgraded with a coat that obscures the wanton breast movement. Still, we’d be shocked if outraged parental groups don’t force Epic into a hasty gaffer tape-focused patch before the kids unlock more sensible garments. As Reddit discovered last month, jiggling boob physics briefly made it into Fortnite, before being swiftly yanked. Members of Fortnite’s official forums, such as ‘MrpoopybuttO’ and ‘ICBPenguin‘, are no doubt doing jigs around their mothers’ basements at the chestal developments. Cheers, PCGN.<doc-sep>Screenshot : Epic Games ( Fortnite ) Fortnite players noticed something unusual about the new Calamity skin in the season six update: her breasts have an undeniable jiggle when she performs the “Jubilation” emote. According to Epic, that was unintentional and a fix is on the way. Advertisement The Calamity cowgirl skin is one of the two main new character skins in the latest season of Fortnite. These skins drop at the first tier of the paid battle pass. As you collect more XP, complete challenges, and level up the battle pass, Calamity gets more elaborate outfits, including a black leather trench coat and spike-lined gloves. As cool as the completely leveled up legendary skin looks, that’s not what people are talking about at the moment. Instead, they’ve noticed the way her breasts bounce up and down in her most basic unleveled outfit, the tier 1 outfit, when she does the Jubilation emote. Streamer FaZe Agony shared a short video of it on Twitter, which got passed around on social media as other fans noticed the change. Calamity’s breasts don’t budge during the default boogie dance; this one emote appears to be the only outlier. An Epic Games spokesperson for Epic Games called the new breast physics were a mistake. “This is unintended, embarrassing, and it was careless for us to let this ship,” they said. “We are working now to fix this as soon as possible.” When asked how something this seemingly elaborate gets unintentionally programmed into a massive update for the most popular game in the world, the spokesperson did not elaborate further.<doc-sep>The video will auto-play soon 8 Cancel Get email updates with the day's biggest stories Invalid Email Something went wrong, please try again later.

As part of their season six roll-out , a new character called "Calamity" was released with, well somewhat noticeable breasts, made more obvious by her "unintended" animation. After having the issue pointed out on Twitter , Epic Games moved to fix the "issue", calling it "embarrassing" and "unintended." The tweet, showing Calamity dancing with her chest jiggling extensively, has been retweeted by 4,000 people and liked 20,000 times. This is not the first time video games have come under fire for sexualising their female characters, with both Metal Gear Solid V and the Tomb Raider series being heavily criticised. Epic Games moved quickly to resolve the problem, and tweeted: "We have disabled elements of our animation system. "This means you may see visual issues with some outfits. Thank you for your patience while we work through these issues!" The company told The Verge: "This is unintended, embarrassing, and it was careless for us to let this ship. We are working now to fix this as soon as possible.” Not everyone online was angry, and some saw the humour of the situation. Fortnite season six started yesterday bringing with it a new theme, skins, and challenges . Do you think Epic Games were right to remove the animation? Let us know in the comments below.<doc-sep>
Fortnite Season 6 implements numerous big changes in the battle royale mode of the game, at least one of which is completely unintentional on Epic's part: new breast physics. We've reached out to Epic to clarify whether or not they're being completely patched out or simply subdued, but the company is not able to specify its plans right now. [Update: It seems as if Epic has already taken action to remove this from the game. In a new tweet, it said, "We have disabled elements of our animation system. This means you may see visual issues with some outfits. Thank you for your patience while we work through these issues!"] [Update 2: According to a tweet from Epic Games, an update has been released that contains fixes for "item and animation issues." There are no further details on what the patch does to items but the breast jiggle animation issue highlighted in the story below seems to have been resolved.] We have just pushed out an update containing fixes for item and animation issues. This will not require downtime. — Fortnite (@FortniteGame) September 28, 2018 On Twitter, FaZe Agony pointed out that Season 6's Calamity avatar's breasts jiggle whenever she performs certain movements or dances. Epic has responded to the discovery with the announcement that these movements were not planned to be included in the game. "This is unintended, embarrassing, and it was careless for us to let this ship," said an Epic spokesperson. "We are working now to fix this as soon as possible." The most important thing in the Season 6 update pic.twitter.com/FrnzFsF1Fl — FaZe Agony (@Agony) September 27, 2018 The company did not announce a timetable for when an update might be rolling out, but it sounds like we can expect a hot fix patch soon. Epic has already released an update for Fortnite on Xbox One that fixes a bug that was making the game unplayable. Season 6 adds plenty of intended changes to Fortnite, though. There are several new skins, such as a Dire Werewolf, Calamity, and DJ Yonder. Seven new weekly challenges have also been added, with three being for free and another four locked behind paying for Battle Pass. New consumables, called Shadow Stones, allow you to gain the supernatural powers to become invisible or phase through solid objects when you use them, and they're found in the game's new corrupted areas. Fortnite is available for Xbox One, PS4, PC, Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS. Sony has released a beta for console cross-play on PS4, making Fortnite the first video game to support online cross-play between Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo's consoles.
