The Death Star is set to invade Fortnite, and a recent leak gives fans a glimpse of what the iconic Star Wars battle station will look like in-game. Fortnite has had its share of otherworldly threats, such as Galactus back in Chapter 2, Season 3, but the Galactic Empire’s deadliest weapon is about to show up in an upcoming season themed around Star Wars.
The Death Star Joins Fortnite’s Galactic Battle Season with New Skins and Chaos-Filled Gameplay
The crossover, which was officially unveiled at Star Wars Celebration Japan, is titled Galactic Battle, and it sounds like it’ll be full of fan-favorite stuff. Notas del editor: This sentence has been updated to correct the reference to a new skin based on legendary Jedi Master Mace Windu, where it previously referred to infamous Darth Jar Jar, a silly nod to the fan theory that Jar Jar Binks was really a Sith Lord in disguise.
Of course, no Star Wars event would be complete without the Death Star itself, the planet-destroying station debuted in Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope, making its way into the Fortnite battlefield. The latest information, unauthorized data miners @SpushFNBR and @ShiinaBR leaked a while ago, show that the Death Star will be mobile during the game, with four separate phases in the season. Fortnite seasons have featured map changes and evolving themes before, but this sounds like it will bring once-in-a-lifetime chaos to the island.
The last Star Wars crossover happened on May 4, and it introduced some memorable cosmetics, but there, we probably can expect much more iconic stuff. And alongside new appearances like Mace Windu and Darth Jar Jar, there’s a desire for classics that longtime fans adore. Though Fortnite has yet to officially announce details about Chapter 6, Season 3, numerous leakers have hinted that it will be titled “Galactic Battle.” This Star Wars-inspired season will likely feature the Death Star looming over the island, ready to unleash its destructive power throughout the event.
