How to dance in Fortnite

On PS4 and Xbox you press the down button on your controller while in a game, this then gives you the option wheel to select which emote you want to use.

If you are playing on a PC and using a keyboard, then the default button to press is B.

You can then select which emote you want to use by moving the right analogue stick and then press X/A, or you can do this by using the mouse on PC.

If you only have one active emote for your character then you won’t have an option wheel, instead your character will just automatically do your default emote.
