It happened. Hell froze over. All but the most annoying people on social media can agree that a new Fortnite add-on is coming that’s more weirdly bad than good. In fact, it’s going to be something that’s going to be terrible. It’s the Tesla Cybertruck.
Yes, forget all the good – albeit slightly weird – stuff that’s recently arrived in the form of Fallout’s T-60 power armor and the Metallica concerts you can take your dad to, assuming you’re willing to teach him about grids, too.

As announced via X (or Twitter as people still call it in real life), the platform of choice for the world’s most obnoxious billionaire — think of the scope of that — Tesla’s Cybertruck is coming to Fortnite.
What will it do? Well, I guess it’s driving it around, as the trailer below shows, if you haven’t watched it. It shows Fortnite mascot Fishstick playing tug-of-war with a bunch of different vehicles, and, because this is a video game, the chain breaks before the Cybertruck starts to rust or fall apart like Wile E Coyote’s ACME contraption and fail.

Once he’s freed, though, Fishstick ends up flying off at a blistering speed, so we can presume the gas pedal came off, sending the ugly car into full throttle. This virtual Cybertuck needs to be recalled, and we can only hope that Fishstick managed to hold on to the brake pedal like his little life depended on it to avoid running over the innocent Geralt of Rivias gang in the school zone.
If nothing else, at least there’s a way to tell if the person who killed you is a real murderer. Or a kid who doesn’t know who Elon Musk is, in which case your job is to open the voice chat like you’re back in the old Modern Warfare days and give a passionate speech about how inherited wealth makes fools.
Only you can save our future. Even if it’s clearly doomed, because the Cybertruck — at least in spirit — has made its way to Roblox.
