The Fortnite Start Wars event will start on May 3, 2024, along with v29.40 update, as revealed by Epic Games via a short trailer posted on X.
This is very fitting since May 4 is globally known as Star Wars Day, making the collaboration event in Fortnite part of this year’s celebration.
It hasn’t been confirmed how long the event will last, but these types of collaborations usually stick around for a couple of weeks to give you a chance to fully experience the content on offer.
Fortnite Star Wars event 2024 content explained
According to a leak from SamLeakss, the Star Wars Day event 2024 will take place in both Fortnite and Rocket League, bringing content to both games. Epic Games also confirmed that you can expect the following Star Wars-themed content for Fortnite:
Battle Royale:
- New quests: Put your Star Wars weapons to the test to complete Battle Royale’s Star War Quests. You’ll receive a Battle Pass Level Up for completing five of these Quests, and the AWR Pack Back Bling for completing ten.
- New weapons: Wookie Bowcaster, Darth Vader’s Light Saber, and E- Blasters.
- Returning NPCs: You’ll find that Darth Vader and the Stormtroopers will be returning to the BR Island in the Lambda Shuttle which will touch down in one of three set landing zones each match.
Battle Royale’s Star Wars Quests will be released in two phases during the crossover: the first on May 3, and the second on May 7.
LEGO Fortnite:
The Empire and Rebels are coming to the LEGO Fortnite world, where you can 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.
Fortnite Festival:
An area inspired by Mos Eisley’s famous Cantina will be coming to the Fortnite Festival Jam Stage. Create your own version of the famous cantina band by getting up on stage with your friends, or just chill out and appreciate some sandy songs.
