Just recently,Ripley and Xenomorph came to Fortnite, and with them came some cool cosmetics, including the Cheyenne Dropship Glider. This one includes a never-before-seen feature in Fortnite. Namely, a secret animation.

How to activate the animation on the Cheyenne Dropship Glider

In terms of reactive cosmetics, these are more likely to occur on skins or weapon paint jobs. If you take a first look at the Cheyenne Dropship Glider, you would assume that it is just a normal glider. However, some have discovered that it has an animation when used.

A clip was posted on the Fortnite Reddit page showing the secret animation of the glider. Before the glider takes its reactive form, it has four missile launchers. Once you trigger its reactive form, those missiles will be hidden. According to the Fortnite player, all you have to do is press the "Shoot" button to trigger this secret feature.

We have tested the animation and can say: It works! What do you think of this feature? Would you like to see something like this more often in Fortnite? Share your thoughts on Facebook or Twitter.
