Fortnite has removed the Yoda back bling from the game after it was seemingly causing players to crash when they performed a specific emote.

A series of videos posted online showed characters sporting the back bling suddenly being dropped out of the game with an error message. It seems it is now being prevented from happening again by the removal of the offending add-on with Epic’s Fortnite account later posting, “Due to an issue that may have been causing crashes for some players, we’ve temporarily disabled the Yoda Back Bling while the team is working on a fix,” Having spent time as Head of Communications at a professional sports club and working for high-profile charities such as the National Literacy Trust, he returned as Managing Editor in charge of large US-based technology websites in 2020.
