May the force (and 4th) be with you! Here is what Fortnite’s robust Star Wars update has to offer!
Fortnite x Star Wars has officially returned just in time for Star Wars Day. Last week, Epic Games confirmed that Anakin Skywalker from the prequel series and recent Obi-Wan Kenobi show would join the roster. However, Fortnite patch v24.30 has much more in store.
Today’s patch includes a Darth Maul and Padmè Amidala skin, new Force abilities, Quests, and more. Here’s a detailed breakdown of everything you’re able to expect.
New Fortnite x Star Wars outfits: Anakin Skywalker, Padmè Amidala, and more
Anakin Skywalkerand his once-beloved wife and (spoiler alert) mother of Luke and Leila Skywalker, Padmè Amidala, are now available to purchase via Fortnite’s item shop. You can also grab the 501st Battalion Trooper and 212th Battalion Trooper, both taken straight from the Clone Wars.
Those who purchase Padmè Amidala will receive the Geonosis Combat alternate style, one you may recognize from Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones.That’s not all, either. Darth Maul is ready and willing to join your Fortnite locker, but it will take some work.
Complete ‘Find the Force’ Quests to unlock Darth Maul and more
You will need to gain Galactic Reputation beginning in Fortnite patch v24.30 to unlock exclusive Star Wars rewards. The Find the Force Quests, which you’re able to find in a separate Fortnite tab, are unique Star Wars-themed challenges.
To earn Galactic Reputation, you must train with the Jedi or Sith, inflict damage with Lightsabers, and search Republic Chests, which contain Trooper-issued DC-15 Blasters. The Galactic Reputation tab provides you with all the information needed for Find the Force.
For those eager to acquire all of the rewards, including Darth Maul, you can upgrade to the Premium Reward Track for 1,000 V-Bucks. If not, the Find the Force free track includes 11 items and the Clone Trooper Outfit.
The Find the Force Quests are split into four, meaning there are four different installments. As of today, The Force Within Questline is now available in Fortnite patch v24.30, with three others unlocking between now and May 17.
Completing one set of challenges (12 total) will net you a Sith Holocron. After obtaining three Sith Holocrons (24 challenges), you will receive the Sith Infiltrator Glider, as seen below.
Lastly, you can unlock the Coruscant’s Pride Wrap free via Discord rewards. Check out Epic’sblog postfor more information.
