Fortnite’s next Star Wars crossover will cover Lego, Festival and Battle Royale modes

Although it’s currently in the middle of a crossover event with Avatar: The Last Airbender, Fortnite is teasing an upcoming event with a returning collaborator: Star Wars. Details haven’t been released yet, but attentive fans of the sci-fi juggernaut will notice something about the start date right away. The event is scheduled to take place on Friday, May 3. The next day, May 4, is known to many as Star Wars Day.

The most interesting information here, however, is the fact that the teaser indicates collaborations in several of Fortnite’s new modes. This includes the classic Battle Royale mode, the survival/crafting Lego mode, and the Rhythm Festival mode, although Rocket Racing has been notably excluded. Crossovers between Fortnite and other IPs usually only include cosmetic packs, but this seems to imply that they will provide content for three different areas of the game.

The current Elements event pass technically includes a Lego skin variant as well as a guitar for Festival mode, so this Star Wars event could be that simple, but it’s not unreasonable to speculate that Star Wars is a property large enough to justify a larger one. scale crossing event. That said, this East just speculation.

Previous Star Wars crossovers have included a boss battle against Darth Vader, lightsabers, blasters, and force abilities, as well as an extensive list of skins spanning the movies and shows. Most recently, Ahsoka joined the fray as part of the Chapter 4 Season 4 battle pass.
