Epic pulls controversial Peacemaker dance emote from Fortnite following big twist in the TV show's latest episode


Epic has pulled a Peacemaker dance emote from battle royale Fortnite, after the latest episode of the TV show proves just how controversial that dance is.

The Peaceful Hips emote was added to Fortnite earlier this month, which features John Cena's character hip-thrusting and holding his arms in rigid 90 degree angles. Well it turns out, as revealed in the latest episode, Peacemaker has been living in an alternate dimension where Nazis won World War 2 and the American flag's stars have been swapped for swastika. Nobody wants nazi symbolism in their kid-friendly battle royale, but it's not just the TV show's viewers who have been duped by a big twist.
