Everything added in Fortnite x Star Wars Day 2024 update

A new Star Wars crossover is arriving in Fortnite on Star Wars Day 2024. Here’s all we know about the skins, Lightsabers, & more.

Since 2019, Star Wars crossovers have been quite popular in Fortnite among both fans of the iconic franchise and players alike. The first-ever collab took place with the release of Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker and added Rey and Finn skins with mythic Lightsaber weapons in the game.

Ever since then, yearly Star Wars crossovers have taken place in Fortnite, bringing iconic characters like The Mandalorian, Luke Skywalker, Darth Maul, Darth Vader, and more to the game.

However, in 2024, for the fourth time, a new installment of a Star Wars collab has been announced and it right so happens ahead of Star Wars Day before the fourth of May.

Everything new coming on Star Wars Day to Fortnite

Despite being a returning crossover, Epic Games is looking to bring some fresh ideas to Fortnite with this iteration of Star Wars Day.

Starting with Battle Royale, Chewbacca has been captured, and players must recuse him at the Imperial Roadblock. Once he’s free, he’ll reward you with the all-new Wookiee Bowcaster, although it can be found at Imperial Chests.

Vader with his red Lightsaber will return to the island with his Stormtroopers in a Lambda Shuttle. Defeat Vader to get your hands on his mighty saber that gives you Sith Force abilities.

Furthermore, new skins will make their way into the shop with Dagobah Luke, Lando Calrissian, and the AWR Trooper Outfits joining the Fortnite island.

Speaking of LEGO, the mode will be getting a hefty infusion of Star Wars content. A new island joins the player’s world, dubbed “Star Wars Island”, that’ll reward players who build it up with Lightsabers and more.

A Star Wars LEGO event pass will debut, similar to the Avatar event. The Premium track will cost 1400 V-Bucks but will dish out 11 more rewards such as the Mos Eisley Marketplace Build.

Finally, Fortnite Festival will be getting its fair share of Star Wars content. When the crossover arrives, a new area inspired by Mos Eisley’s famous Cantina will see players rock out on stage. Completing seven of the Star Wars quests will reward you with the Seven-string Hallikset Guitar for Festival usage.

A new Jam Track will be added — Cantina Band for you to enjoy with your friends on the Mos Eisley stage. Alongside that the Endorian Drum Kit and Nalargon Keytar will be in the Fortnite Shop starting May 3 with the release of v29.40

There will also be a new Star Wars-themed car body for use in Rocket Racing, the Beskar Car Body, as part of a bundle coming with the next update. You’ll also be able to earn free decals by completing quests both in Battle Royale and Rocket Racing.
