You've probably wondered what this funny bunny is supposed to be. Let me guess, you thought he was just some strange invention of an Epic Games designer? Well, you're sadly mistaken. In fact, Guggimon is a digital character and has over freaking 1.3 million followers on Instagram. Let's dive into their life.
Who is Guggimon?
Guggimon is a virtual influencer and property of Superplastic. Superplastic is the world's leading manufacturer of animated synthetic celebrities, designer toys, and clothing. And also, the very home of Guggimon and his friends.
Superplastic was founded by artist and entrepreneur Paul Budnitz. Legendary toy artist Huck Gee is responsible for the art and production. Superplastic has sold millions of dollars worth of their limited edition products in 2020 alone. They've worked with J.Balvin, Gorillaz, Rico Nasty, Saint Jhn, Steve Aoki, and Fortnite, among others.
How To Get Guggimon in Fortnite?
Guggimon is an epic Fortnite outfit and part of the "Guggimon" set. In Fortnite, he was part of the Battle Pass of Chapter 2, Season 7, which means he was only available there, and you're out of luck if you don't already own him and wanted to add him to your locker. By completing challenges, you could unlock different styles for him.
So now you know a bit more about this strange guy. Is this skin something for you too?
