Fortnite players call out Avatar crossover for doing Sokka “dirty”

Avatar: The Last Airbender characters have arrived in Fortnite, but some fans are not happy as the popular character Sokka has been left out.

Fortnite’s Avatar: The Last Airbender event is hitting the island on April 12, and players can already get their hands on some of the skins. The characters getting skins in the collab include Aang, Zuko, Katara, Toph, and even Korra, but what about Sokka?

Sokka is a popular character from the animated series who many were expecting to be involved in the Fortnite collab, however, after Epic Games dropped the trailer for Katara, Zuko, and Toph’s arrival in the Item Shop, players shared their disappointment with Sokka’s exclusion.

“They did my goat Sokka dirty,” said one reply on X, along with an image of the character. Another said, “he was the one we were wanting the most.” Some speculate that it’s because Sokka is a non-bender, and perhaps Epic wanted to introduce characters that made sense with the elemental Mythics.

Many others shared similar disappointment with Sokka’s exclusion, but some are hopeful that there’s still a chance for the character to make it in the game. Some believe that Sokka may be included in the Event Pass that’s set to come out alongside the Avatar: Elements event in Fortnite, but leaks surrounding the collab almost guarantee that the character will not be included.

That said, the most recent Guards of the Galaxy bundle saw more characters from the franchise added many seasons after the original collab, so there’s always a chance that something similar could happen for Sokka and future Avatar: The Last Airbender Fortnite skins.
