Everything new in the Fortnite x Star Wars update in Chapter 4

The Fortnite x Star Wars collaboration went live following update v24.30. While some other content related to normal gameplay (such as new Weekly Challenges and Reality Augments) were added to the game, the bulk of it is Star Wars related. With so much to go over, not everyone has been able to keep track of everything that's happening in-game.

For the duration of the collaboration, players will be able to test out various Force Powers, go face-to-face with Darth Vader, and earn numerous cosmetics for free. The collaboration will last until the end of the month. That said, here's everything that's new in the Fortnite x Star Wars update in Chapter 4.

Force Powers and four other things that are new in the Fortnite x Star Wars update in Chapter 4

1) Force Powers + Lightsabers + DC-15 Blaster Rifle

Force Power is one of the major new attractions of the Star Wars update in Fortnite Chapter 4. Players can obtain one by interacting with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, or Darth Maul. Each offers a different Force Power as well as a different colored Lightsaber.

According to leaker/data miner iFireMonkey, four more Force Powers are in development. However, there's no indication as to when they will be added to the game. This also means that at least four more characters from Star Wars will have to be added to the island if and when the Force Powers are added in.

Apart from Forcer Powers and Lightsabers, a new Blaster Rifle, DC-15 was added to the game as well. It has similar stats to the E-11 Blaster Rifle, but it is somewhat better in general combat situations in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2.

2) Darth Vader Boss NPC

Darth Vader is coming back with a vengeance, and according to leaker/data miner iFireMonkey, he'll feature as a Boss NPC on the island once again. One of the Find the Force Quests will task players with defeating Darth Vader. If the character is as powerful as he was back in Chapter 3, players may have to team up to defeat him.

Based on the information available, he will arrive on the island around May 13, 2023. Also, much like last time, he will not be alone, and a group of 501st Clone Troopers will be accompanying him. They will no doubt turn hostile if Darth Vader is attacked. However, given their imprecise aim, taking them on should be easy.

3) Find the Force Quests and Rewards

There are numerous Find the Quests that have been added for the Fortnite x Star Wars update. Every few days, a new batch of Quests will be added in as well. Upon completing all 58 quests, two Level-Up Tokens will be granted to players.

Aside from earning experience points in-game while taking on these quests, players will also earn Galactic Reputation points. This can be used to unlock cosmetic rewards such as Outfits, Level-Up Tokens, Back Blings, and more. For a small fee of 1,000 V-Bucks, players will be able to upgrade their Star Wars Battle Pass to earn even more cosmetic items.

4) Outfits/Cosmetics

Aside from the freebies that can be earned by completing Find the Force Quests, players can also purchase Outfits/Cosmetics from the Item Shop. Currently, there are three bundles that are up for grabs: Anakin Skywalker, Padmé Amidala, and 501st/212th Battalion Trooper.

The first two cost 2,100 V-Bucks each and contain a plethora of cosmetic items, while the latter contains two Outfits. Based on community feedback, the Anakin Skywalker Bundle is extremely popular and with good reason. The design of the character used in Fortnite showcases his darker side.

5) Order 66

Although there are voice lines by Emperor Palpatine in-game, it's unclear what these relate to. According to leakers/data miners, these may be used in an upcoming mini-event, but there's no confirmation of the same. That said, given how iconic Order 66 is, Epic Games surely has something in mind.
