Use the Force in Fortnite with Force Abilities

Fortnite has collaborated with Lucasfilm and Disney for multiple Star Wars events and in-game cosmetics over the years, and both sides have come together once more for some fresh content. For Star Wars Day 2023, Fortnite is expanding its roster of playable Star Wars characters with Anakin Skywalker, Padme Amidala, Darth Maul, and the Clone Troopers.

The new Find the Force event is live now and will run until the 23rd of May, 2023. On Battle Royale Island, players will find Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Darth Maul, each ready to train you in the ways of the Jedi and Sith powers. They’ll equip you with a lightsaber and new Force abilities to unleash on opponents.

Epic Games has also added a reward track for the Star Wars event, which functions like a mini Battle Pass. The freeway includes a slew of Star Wars-themed cosmetics, with players being granted the Clone Trooper Outfit as the final reward. The Premium track costs 1,00 V-Bucks, including the Wolf Pack Trooper, Ahsoka's Clone Trooper, and Darth Maul Outfits. Fortnite has also welcomed Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala to the Item Shop. In addition, the Padme Outfit has an alternative Battle Worn style inspired by her look on Geonosis in Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones. The respective bundles also come with gliders, pickaxes, and bling to add to your character’s back. Lastly, the 501st and 212th Battalion Trooper Pack adds Clone Trooper skins.

It’s become an annual tradition for Fortnite to add some sort of Star Wars content in honour of the 4th of May, and this year is no different. As you jump into this month’s themed event, remember to count on GameGrin for all your Fortnite news. The free-to-play battle royal is currently free to play on all major platforms.
