"Fortnite's long-rumored pets cosmetic, officially dubbed "sidekicks" by Epic Games, will finally see the light of day on November 1 when Fortnite's new Simpsons-themed mini-season begins. These sidekicks will be little pets that follow you around and do emotes and "react to the world around you," according to Epic. The first sidekick will be a banana dog called Peels, which will be included in the Simpsons battle pass that launches November 1."
"Each sidekick is customizable, but you can only design the way it looks--meaning the color of its skin, scales or fur, or whether it has horns, and other physical characteristics--a single time. If you want to make one that looks different, you'll have to buy a new copy, seemingly at full price. The idea with this is that each critter you design is a unique being."
Fortnite will introduce pet sidekicks on November 1 as part of a Simpsons-themed mini-season and battle pass. The first sidekick is a banana dog named Peels included in the Simpsons battle pass, with three more sidekicks arriving in the item shop on November 7. Owners of the original Bonesy back bling will receive a new Bonesy sidekick for free. Sidekicks follow players, perform emotes, and react to the environment. Appearance customization is limited to a one-time design per copy; additional appearance changes require purchasing another copy. Accessories unlock through gameplay. The event includes a Springfield island, Marge and Homer skins, and a live kickoff event.
