After years of fandom anticipation, Fortnite is finally bringing pets to its massive playerbase. Kicking off with a single pet on November 1, and expanding to several more just six days later, these Sidekicks (as they're called) are sure to bring plenty of fun wherever they may roam. Battle Royale, LEGO Fortnite, "developer-made experiences" — plenty of places await.
But there's an important disclaimer. Sidekicks' appearance can be customized precisely once. Thereafter, it's off to the shop again, where you'll have to fork over some money all over again for a separate sidekick of the same... type? Category? Species? Yeah, basically, you need to think long and hard before giving these beloved companions a makeover.
The above trailer, which clocks in at a brisk 30 seconds and yet still finds time to request a like, does a fine job of convincing me that I should get that dinosaur. Alas, I have never played Fortnite; but if I did, I sure would be tempted.
I digress. The important bit is as follows, pulled straight from the official announcement:
You can customize the Appearance of most Sidekicks one time in your Locker after obtaining ‘em. Your choices are permanent, so make sure...
