Okay, seriously, who else freaked out when they saw Towelie pop up in Fortnite? I know I did! As a massive South Park fan, getting this iconic character as a sidekick was a dream come true. It's not just a simple cosmetic; he brings so much personality to the game, and I absolutely love having him by my side during matches. Towelie officially dropped into Fortnite during Chapter 7, Season 1, as part of the amazing 'Gonna Have Myself A Time' set. I picked him up from the Item Shop almost immediately because, let's face it, who wouldn't want a sentient towel asking if you've brought a towel? He's categorized as a 'Sidekick,' which means he's a loyal companion that floats around you, offering some hilarious commentary. His voice lines are pure gold, directly referencing classic Towelie moments from South Park, and honestly, they always make me chuckle in the middle of a tense build fight. What makes Towelie even cooler are the unlockable styles! I was stoked to find out you can customize him. The 'Stephen McTowelie' style is a personal favorite, giving him that dapper, sophisticated look – quite a contrast to his usual self! It's these little details that really make the collaboration feel special and not just a quick cash grab. Plus, he comes with a built-in feature, and his 'Sidekick Emote' called 'Wisdom of Tow' is just perfect. Imagine dropping into the lobby and hitting that emote; it's a great way to show off your love for South Park. One of the best things about Towelie is his versatility. He's not just limited to the Battle Royale island. I've been using him everywhere! You can bring him along in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, where he fits surprisingly well into the blocky world, and even in LEGO Fortnite Brick Life for some creative building sessions. And if you're a rhythm game fan like me, you can totally jam out with him in Fortnite Festival. It's awesome that Epic Games made him usable across so many different modes, really adding value to the purchase. For anyone wondering if he's worth it, I'd say absolutely! If you're a long-time South Park viewer or just love unique and funny cosmetics, Towelie is a must-have. Keep an eye on the Item Shop; collaborations like this often rotate, so you might need to wait if you missed him initially. Having him float around, offering his unique brand of wisdom, just makes every game a little bit better. It truly feels like a piece of South Park has officially entered the Fortnite universe, and I'm here for it!
