Fortnite chapter 7 just added Bigfoot as an NPC, but why?

Fortnite‘s new chapter has introduced a bunch of new elements, from quality-of-life upgrades to the ability to become a boss after you defeat them, giving you special powers and the ability to call upon two NPCs to serve as your bodyguards. The latest novelty, though, doesn’t really change anything about gameplay. And yet, it might end up being more important than anything else this season. Bigfoot has arrived in Fortnite.
