Overview
- Sidekicks, cosmetic pet companions that follow players across modes, are now live in Fortnite.
- Initial Sidekick prices range from about 1,200 to 1,500 V-Bucks, a level some players note exceeds certain character skins.
- Base appearance selections are permanent, and changing core traits requires buying another Sidekick.
- Players on Reddit and Twitter are urging others to skip purchases to push for policy or price changes.
- Some users report receiving surveys on pricing and customization, though Epic has not announced any adjustments.
