Fortnite players claim they miss this type of “iconic” cosmetic that was only available in the OG days and beg devs to add them back.
What makes the game’s cosmetics even better is that they often feature unique animations and effects that players seem to love. And when it comes to that, it’s hard to forget the “iconic”pet back blingsthat were introduced in the OG days of Fortnite.
Not only do these back blings react to the player’s gameplay, but others can also pet the cuddly creatures, making them quite unique. Unfortunately, this kind of back bling has yet to return in the game, and players have demanded them to be brought back.
In aReddit threadshowcasing some of the pet back blings in Fortnite, one user claimed that Epic would “make tons of money” if they brought them back to the game. “Players who didn’t play during chapter 1 want them,” they added.
The majority of players agreed with the OP in comments, with some of them claiming they want them “so bad” and that it would be a “smart” move to do.
“Yea, we’ve barely got any since chapter 1, and they were battle pass only,” one person wrote. Meanwhile, another user suggested, “Toys and Pets NEED to return.”
One person said they would “100% love” a baby Klombo pet back bling, referring to themassive dinosaur-like creature in Fortnitethat appeared in Chapter 3.

“Pets were the most iconic thing in BR no other game has them,” another person wrote in the comments.
Despite some players wanting pets to be brought back to the game, others were skeptical of their return. One user explained that pets’ designs and animations take more time to develop, and they’re rarely used due to their “bulky” look.
Another user also pointed out that devs also have to “fix” them, explaining that half their pets have “lost their animations.”
While it’s unknown whether or not pets will be brought back, the next season is fast approaching, and there are many othernew cosmeticsplayers can look forward to.
