Fortnite emotes let you express yourself uniquely on the battlefield. While the Item Shop rotates hundreds of options, some rare gems haven't returned in ages, making them status symbols few players own.
Emotes are fan-favorite cosmetics for dancing, taunting, or celebrating. Purchased with V-Bucks or unlocked via Battle Pass, these expressive items define your style. Drawing from Item Shop history and player sightings, here are the top 3 rarest as of January 2022 in Chapter 3 Season 1.
