Galactic Crossover Event Touches Down In FORTNITE
Fortnite is bringing in all the stops to introduce a galaxy-wide collaboration with Star Wars called Find the Force! Epic Games is bringing new cosmetics, weapons, skins, and abilities to their record-breaking PVP battle royale game. Step into the shoes of a Jedi padawan or Sith apprentice as you cut down your enemies with the elegant lightsaber or crush them with your master knowledge of the Force!
Find the Force Quests are objectives offering a wave of rewards in cosmetics like the Clone Trooper outfit. Purchasing the premium reward track upgrade provides an added layer of bonuses like the Darth Maul outfit and more. Multiple outfits are available in the item shop such as Anakin Skywalker, Padme Amidala with a Geonosis Combat style variant, the 501st Trooper, and a 212th Battalion Trooper outfit!
Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Darth Maul all await the player as holograms somewhere on the map. Interacting with one will provide a chance to learn the force from true masters, which unlocks a lightsaber specific to whomever the player chooses to learn from. Green for Kenobi, blue for Anakin, and red for Darth Maul, obviously. From here the player will gain the ability to double jump and run faster no matter the trainer chosen while the lightsaber is equipped. Force techniques, like push, pull, and throw, can be added to the repertoire of ways to defeat enemies and gain that number-one victory!
Follow the Fortnite Blog for additional information on Find the Force. The crossover ends on May 23rd at 9 AM ET. Fortnite is available on Windows via the Epic Games Store, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
