Fortnite Bus Driver: How to Thank the Bus Driver in Fortnite

The Fortnite bus driver is a busy person, floating about the sky with no time for a break, and I’ve never heard them complain. If any Fortnite character deserves our thanks, it’s the bus driver. Following the recent 5.30 update, players can now take the time to offer their thanks, before continuing their usual dropping down to the island to fight to their death. How to thank the bus driver is pretty simple, easily done before hitting the jump button.

As I said, how to thank the bus driver in Fortnite is incredibly simple, and I urge all of you to take the time to show some good manners. If you’re on console, you’ll be wanting to push “Down” on the d-pad. Those on PC will be needing to hit the “B” key, assuming controls are at their default.

The Fortnite thank the bus driver feature has likely been inspired by a recent trending meme, in which those that thank the bus driver (in real life) are considered to be more successful than those who don’t. This clearly attracted the attention of Epic Games, and now it’s in the game.

With this little Fortnite bus driver Easter egg, the developer has once again acknowledged that it is paying attention to the community and what’s currently being talked about. It’s especially clear that Reddit is a website that Epic Games often frequents, as a lot of inspiration for previous Easter eggs has blatantly come from dedicated Fortnite subreddits.

What Does Thanking the Bus Driver Do in Fortnite?

As for what exactly thanking the bus driver in Fortnite does, it seems to only notify the lobby in the kill feed area. There are no gameplay advantages that we can see, and it’s likely just a little nod to show that Epic is always listening!
