Fortnite and Star Wars are crossing over again, but not in the same way as before! On May 3 with v29.40, galactic adventure comes to different parts of the Fortnite universe: LEGO® Fortnite, Battle Royale, Fortnite Festival, and Rocket Racing.
There’s something for every Star Wars fan in this vast crossover. Head to LEGO Fortnite to unlock Star Wars Builds and Decor, or fight off enemies with a Wookiee Bowcaster by your side in Battle Royale. Rock out in a Mos Eisley Cantina-inspired area at the Festival Jam Stage, and unlock a Podracer and Darth Maul Decal in Rocket Racing!
REBEL AGAINST THE EMPIRE IN LEGO FORTNITE
The Empire and Rebels are coming to your LEGO Fortnite world... Side with the Rebels by building up the Rebel Village and using tools to keep the Empire at bay: Lightsabers, Bowcasters, DL-44 Blasters, E-11 Blasters, and Thermal Detonators!
Make progress in the LEGO Pass: Rebel Adventure as you help out the Rebellion. This Pass has unlockable rewards including Star Wars Builds and Decor, and the Chewbacca Outfit you’ll get just for upgrading to the Pass’ Premium Reward Track! There’s so much to see and do in LEGO Fortnite that there’s a whole ‘nother blog post fans can read 👀
CHEWBACCA JOINS THE FIGHT
Millennium Falcon co-pilot Chewbacca has been captured and it’s up to you to rescue him! To save him from the claws of the Empire, you’ll need to head to a specific Imperial Roadblock. (The one he’s at changes each match!) Chewbacca will cheer after being liberated, then follow you into battle with his trusty Bowcaster.
Who says Wookiees should have all the fun? Chewbacca will hand you your own Wookiee Bowcaster as a thanks for rescuing him! You can also find one inside Imperial Chests at Imperial Roadblocks across the Island. With this weapon equipped, shoot individual quarrels quickly or charge up a heavier, explosive shot.
WIELD DARTH VADER’S LIGHTSABER ONCE AGAIN!
Don’t underestimate the power of the dark side.
Darth Vader and the Stormtroopers will be returning to the BR Island in the Lambda Shuttle! Defeat Vader in battle and you’ll be able to pick up his lightsaber. Use Darth Vader’s Lightsaber to block incoming fire and swing at enemies, and even throw it at your opponents!
A GALAXY FULL OF QUESTS
