Professional Fortnite player Sin has been accused of making racist remarks after a video has surfaced on Twitter revealing the streamer's use of racial slurs. As a prolific Fortnite Esports player, Sin has come under fire on social media for the leaked video's contents, subsequently resulting in his Twitter account being deleted.
The alleged comments made by Sin while recording a collection of firearms include offensive and potentially triggering dialogue directed at people of color, stating "Just in case there’s ever a zombie apocalypse, or a n***** outbreak, we got the armory n****." This video is particularly alarming after the recent Buffalo shooting which was racially motivated towards POC community members, and connected to the surge of online hate speech in recent years.
The original video was posted by a Twitter user named Sin3278Racist on May 22, and received over 1000 combined retweets before being taken down. Sin responded to seemingly confirm that the video is of him and refused to apologize for it, making assertions like “I never threatened anyone or said I’m gonna do anything.” Further tweets of Sin stating "i am racist and proud" have been screenshotted and shared throughout the Fortnite community, with members asking Epic Games to ban Sin for these inflammatory comments.
Sin recently qualified for the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 Grand Finals in North America, but is likely to be disqualified as a result of the hateful remarks being made. This is devastating from a gameplay perspective as both semi-final winners are likely to be removed from attending the Grand Finals, but Sin's former duo partner Acro has publicly taken a stand against him. Sergio Brack, the Director of Esports at the University of Maryland, has also stated on Twitter that racism is not to be tolerated in gaming communities.
The studio has currently given no comment with regard to Sin's leaked video, meaning it is unclear whether any further action will be taken against Sin. Many popular Fortnite streamers have criticized Sin's comments, along with Sin's partner Acro choosing to disassociate from him.
Fortnite is available now for Android, Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
