Fortnite Temporarily Disables Yoda Backpack Due to Game-Crashing Glitch

A Zoidberg-inspired emote triggers severe bugs, prompting Epic Games to pull several Star Wars-themed items from the game.

  • Fortnite's recent Star Wars event introduced a Yoda backpack that caused games to crash when paired with a specific Futurama emote.
  • Epic Games removed the Yoda backpack and other related cosmetics to prevent further disruptions.
  • The glitch transformed Yoda's appearance into an extended, noodle-like form, causing unexpected game exits.
  • Players reported crashes not only in their own games but also affecting their teammates.
  • No definite timeline provided for when the items might be reinstated, as developers work on a fix.
