Fortnite X Star Wars: Skins & Events from this partnership

We have already brought you the entire Fortnite partnership with Marvel and with DC. Now it's time to elaborate on all the events and skins from the immense Star Wars universe that appeared in Epic Games' battle royale!

This huge partnership was started with a simple skin, the iconic Imperial Stormtrooper made his appearance on November 15, 2019!

The aim was to promote the new game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, so much so that those who purchased this game on the Epic Games Store received the skin for free.

On December 14, 2019, a week before the film's release, the battle royale had its first event with Star Wars. There, an exclusive scene from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker was broadcast.

Fans who attended the event received the TIE Whisper Glider as a gift or souvenir of their participation.

Event Skins

In addition to the live scene, three characters were made available for purchase: Rey, Finn and Sith Trooper.

And, a week later, the battle royale brought two more skins from the franchise to its item store, Zorii Bliss and Kylo Ren.

It is worth noting that some lightsabers appeared for a limited time as a weapon for players to find on the map and experience a new battle style, managing to strike or block.

May 4th is known for being Star Wars Day, and in 2020, this date was celebrated within Fortnite. Between the 3rd and 5th of that month, the lightsabers were available again, in the colors green (Luke Skywalker), purple (Mace Windu), blue (Rey) and Kylo Ren's three-pointed red saber.

Some of the aforementioned costumes also returned to the store during this period.

This season is present in this article because of the Mandalorian outfit, which was the highlight of that battle pass. At the time, the skin was released shortly after acquiring the golden pass, at level 1, in addition to a sequence of Beskar Quests.

These quests served to improve the Mandalorian's armor, unlocking new parts that could be edited.

This collab is so big that it literally brought a new game mode! Between February 2nd and 9th, 2021, the Mando's Bounty took place.

Players could enjoy solo or with their friends, and needed to eliminate the target on their Bounty Disks, as well as other opponents to collect galactic credits. The first to reach the credits goal wins the match. It is worth noting that the players had three lives, and of course, they could be targets of the Mando.

The mode lived up to the title of greatest warriors in the galaxy given to the Mandalorians, famous for being the most predominant group of bounty hunters, and they are also the greatest Jedi hunters.

On the same date that the event was announced, Epic Games also announced that players who achieved a royale victory that season were rewarded with the new Beskar Umbrella, a metallic alloy known to be forged by Mandalorians.

On Christmas Eve of the same year, the arrival of one of the franchise's greatest Mandalorians, Boba Fett, was announced, landing on Fortnite's Islands.

Shortly thereafter, in early 2022, new bounty hunters arrived in the battle royale. In addition to Boba Fett's return to the store, we had the launch of Fennec Shand and Krrsantan.

We had another event for Star Wars Day, this time a bigger one than the previous year, the celebration that previously took place between the 3rd and 5th of May, took place from the 3rd to the 18th of the month in 2022.

The event featured the return of lightsabers and the E-11 Blaster Rifle weapon.

A series of free missions were also made available, which granted players the Empire Banner item when completed. The tasks required the use of special Star Wars items, further increasing fans' immersion.

In addition to having a longer duration, all skins (except for those offered in the Battle Pass) returned to the item store, they were: Imperial Stormtrooper, Kylo Ren, Zorii Bliss, Finn, Rey, Sith Trooper, Boba Fett, Fennec Shand and Krrsantan.

Many people's favorite character, Obi-Wan Kenobi, made his appearance in the item shop on May 26, 2022. However, players could participate in this championship in pairs to try to win the skin along with his back accessory, free of charge, on the 22nd.

It is worth mentioning that lightsabers and the E-11 Blaster Rifle were available as well.

One of the greatest villains in cinema history, Darth Vader made his appearance in Chapter 3: Season 3. Being the highlight and the last skin of the battle pass.

Since we're talking about favorite characters, the original trio of Star Wars heroes couldn't be left out. Fortnite received Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa and Han Solo costumes in item stores in November 2022, at v22.30.

The update also brought the so-called “Skywalker Week” which brought Luke's blue (A New Hope) and green (Return of the Jedi) sabers, in addition to Darth Vader's classic red.

Between May 2nd and 23rd, 2023, the biggest event in this article took place, with the addition of new skins.

The Clone Trooper outfit was made available for free as the last reward in the free version.

When purchasing the premium version, players received the Coruscant Guard, and if they advanced along this path, they would also have Wolf Pack Trooper, Ahsoka's Clone Trooper and Darth Maul as the last reward of the premium version.

In the item store, the additions were: Anakin Skywalker, Padmé Amidala, 501st Trooper and 212th Trooper.

We also had a cosmetic in partnership with Discord, the user only needed to fulfill one of these requirements:

Complete the Find Discord Strength Task. Start by adding the channel in question to an official Fortnite Discord server.

Leaving the cosmetics and going to the gameplay of the event, Holograms of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker and Darth Maul were available on the map. When interacting with any of them, a crack would appear, leaving the crack and landing on the ground with the respective character's lightsaber, we were able to use its strength.

All three had a common ability with strength: running faster and doing double jumps. Now let's move on to specific effects.

Darth Maul: Accept training from Darth Maul and learn to use strength to lift objects from the surroundings and throw them at players.

Walking around the map, it was possible to find Republic Chests that granted DC-15 Blaster Rifles.

Chapter 4: Season 4

In September 2023, we had the latest Star Wars news in the game. Where Ahsoka Tano's costume was made available in this season's battle pass.

The character was also present on the island in the form of a hologram, which works in the same way as the previous ones, providing you with the rift and your lightsaber with the force.

Ashoka Tano had the following Force abilities:
