Star Wars returns to Fortnite with a five-part saga and new skins.
Fortnite ’s next Battle Pass is Star Wars themed , and it will be here in less than two weeks on May 2. It also adds Darth Jar Jar, so get ready for a lot of “mesa winner” jokes in the near future. The news broke during Star Wars Celebration and included a lot of details about what the new additions might bring, including adding Force Lightning as an in-game ability.
Besides Death Jar Jar, other skins like Emperor Palpatine can also be unlocked through the Battle Pass. In addition, there are mashups with existing Fortnite characters like the Wookie Cuddle Team Leader and more. Players can purchase a Mace Windu skin through the Item Shop and also utilize new vehicles like the TIE Fighter and X-Wing.

If you love Fortnite and you’re also a huge Star Wars fan, this season sounds like one you won’t want to miss. Each week will have a different theme, too. Starting from May 2, the themes are Imperial Takeover, The Pull of the Force, Mandalorian Rising, Star Destroyer Bombardment, and Death Star Sabotage — a little something from almost every part of Star Wars lore. Although finer details haven’t been given, we wouldn’t be surprised to see a skin or two from the Knights of the Old Republic era, either.
