Fortnite has added a “67” emote that’s circulating under the name Doot Doot (6 7), a short music emote built around the “6 7” refrain. As with many meme-driven cosmetics, the appeal is less about choreography and more about recognition: players use it as a quick punchline after eliminations, in lobbies, or while waiting out circles.
What the “Doot Doot (6 7)” / “67” emote is
Doot Doot (6 7) is an emote tied to the “67” meme. The shorthand “6 7” and “67” are both used by players to refer to the same thing, and the emote’s identity is wrapped up in that repetition.
In practice, it’s a brief, audio-forward emote meant to be instantly recognizable rather than a long dance routine. That short runtime is part of why it’s easy to spam during matches.
Why it’s showing up now
The emote has been spotted ahead of release and discussed as a near-term Item Shop addition, then quickly picked up across social platforms once it became clear it was real. The end result is familiar: Fortnite takes a fast-moving internet joke and turns it into something you can equip on the emote wheel.
That cycle tends to be polarizing. Some players like having a current, lightweight meme option in their locker; others see it as Fortnite speeding up the “life cycle” of a joke by putting it in the shop.
How to get the “67” emote in Fortnite
Fortnite cosmetics like this are typically purchased from the Item Shop while they’re available. If it’s live for your region and account, it will appear as a shop tile with its name and price.
Step 1: Open Fortnite and go to the Item Shop. Browse the featured and daily sections for Doot Doot (6 7) or any listing that clearly references “6 7” / “67.”
Step 2: Select the emote and confirm the purchase with your preferred payment method (usually V-Bucks). Once completed, it’s added to your locker.
Step 3: Go to Locker and assign the emote to an emote slot so it shows up on your in-match emote wheel.
How it’s being used in matches and lobbies
The “67” emote fits into a category Fortnite has leaned on for years: quick, culturally specific callouts that act like a shared language. Players tend to use it in three main ways:
- Post-elimination punctuation to taunt or troll.
- Lobby signaling when squadding up with friends who recognize the meme.
- Mass syncing when a group triggers the emote at once in a pre-game area.
What to expect after it lands
Meme emotes often spike hard and then fade into the background once the novelty wears off. The “67” emote is likely to follow that same curve: heavy usage immediately after release, then a slower drop as players rotate back to older favorites.
If you’re deciding whether to buy it, the practical question is simple: do you want a short, audio-led meme emote you’ll use now, or are you building a locker around longer-lasting staples?
