The MMORPG sensation that is Fortnite <\/strong>Battle Royale released a brand new update yesterday.

Epic Games is known, at this point, for incredible content drops surrounding pivotal events. Who can forget the Season 4 Marvel collab for Avengers: Infinity War or Fortnite x Marshmello<\/strong> in Season 7? The team is at it again, this time bringing you loads of Star Wars merch, alongside other great content, in celebration of Star Wars Day 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most important inclusions in this collaboration is the lightsabers. All the lightsabers deal the same amount of damage and have the same capabilities, so in terms of the gameplay, it doesn\u2019t really matter which you choose. But true Star Wars fans<\/strong> know that it matters a great deal which color you wield. We\u2019d have loved to have seen Rey\u2019s yellow lightsaber, even if just for further variety, but what we have is a good lineup of fresh weapons in any case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weapons drop doesn\u2019t end there, though. In addition to the four lightsabers, we\u2019ve also now got the E-11 Blast Rifle back! Epic Games have also released new Star Wars-themed Quests that will be available until Monday, May the 16th. In these Quests, you can expect to do things like confiscate a landspeeder and use \u2018Jedi contraband,\u2019 which here most likely means a lightsaber. Here\u2019s the best bit; If you complete five of these Quests, termed the Empire Accreditation Quests<\/strong>, you\u2019ll earn yourself the Empire Banner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortnite has also added a brand new non-Star Wars battle – The Battle for Tilted Towers<\/strong>. Join the resistance and push back the IO in this new POI Battle. You can also now attack from above in the brand new Choppa! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Star Wars day in Fortnite won\u2019t just be one day. It officially kicked off on May the 3rd and will run until May the 17th, 2022. In other Fortnite news, we might be seeing a Fortnite x Attack on Titan collab<\/strong> soon.<\/p>\n\n\n
