Is Fortnite Sinister Glare skin secretly reactive to Snap emote?

Is the Fortnite Sinister Glare skin harboring a secret reactive feature? Given that the skin has three hands, two normal ones and one for the head, there are plenty of fingers to go around. That is why many users began to speculate that the Snap emote would be done by Sinister Glare's head, or in this case, his hand. But is it really true?

Well, no. This is far from being accurate despite the rumors taking hold of the community. While having a hand for the head would most definitely allow the character to make hand gestures, the Snap emote is limited to the character's hands only. That said, the character performs the 'snap' much like any other skin.

What is the Fortnite Sinister Glare skin?

The Fortnite Sinister Glare skin is inspired by Dreowings' concept art. It's one of the two concept skins added to the game for Fortnitemares 2022. The item shop is currently available for 1,200 V-Bucks.

As far as concept art goes, this one takes the cake when it comes to creativity. As of now, it's one of the most unique skins designed for Halloween. With a red-eye bulging in the center of the head-hand and a back bling-shaped like fingers holding an eye, everything about it is spooky.

That said, another skin, Undying Sorrow, inspired by kitsunexkitsu, was also added to the item shop a few hours ago. These two skins won the creative contest to be featured in-game.

Does any other skin in Fortnite react differently to the Snap emote?

As far as things go, no other skin in-game is currently known to do the Snap emote differently. Ever since being added in during Chapter 1 Season 4, it's been used by dozens of skins in-game. If there was any special or hidden feature in-built into the emote with regards to skins, Loopers would have found it by now.

There are other emotes that do have the "Easter Egg" feature. For example, Burpee, released during Fortnite Chapter 1 Season X, showcases the character doing burpees, a form of exercise. However, at times, rather than doing a burpee, the character simply burps. Clever use of wordplay.

While many fans will jump to conclusions and call this a special or reactive feature, it's nothing more than a different version of the emote. Much like how skins have different styles, certain emotes have different versions built into them.

Another prime example would be Imane "Pokimane'' Anys' Poki emote. Towards the end of the emote, when the character is about to take a selfie, there's a small chance that the mobile device will be held differently. It will go into landscape mode instead of the normal portrait mode.

As stated, it's not exactly a secret feature or anything like that. It's just a variation of the animation used and can be triggered under normal circumstances. Anyone who owns the emote can see it as well. Nevertheless, these cool animations are limited to only a handful of emotes in Fortnite.
