The clip comes from a voice changer recording rather than from Fortnite itself, with the game used only as the setup for the joke. Fortnite, released by Epic Games in 2017, became a constant reference in meme culture, so fan made voices are shared on soundboards alongside the Fortnite default dance and the pump shotgun. This sound circulated as a short shareable audio for trolling and reaction use, and stays popular because the exaggerated voice can be dropped into almost any gaming conversation.
