As for the new emote, Pele’s Air Punch recreates the iconic football player Pele’s famous celebration, and it will be available starting January 23. You can see it in action in the video above.
You may be able to get the Air Punch emote earlier, however, by participating in the Pele Cup inside Fortnite. This event kicks off on January 20, and taking part in the event provides you with a chance to get the skins early and potentially other prizes. Full details about the Pele Cup are available through the official rules.
Additionally, Epic has rolled out a new football-themed Creative island where players can take part in a special 4v4 bracket-style game mode focused around football.
