The Death Star has set its sights on Fortnite, creating a buzz among players eager to catch a glimpse of the iconic Star Wars fortress when it debuts. Fortnite fans have grown accustomed to facing formidable adversaries, like the massive Galactus from Marvel’s universe, but this time, the threat comes from a galaxy far, far away. The notorious battle station will soon make its presence known on the Island in an exciting new Star Wars crossover season.
This crossover, announced at the recent Star Wars Celebration in Japan, has fans buzzing about what’s in store. Dubbed Galactic Battle, this season not only brings new character skins, such as Jedi master Mace Windu and the notorious Darth Jar Jar—yes, based on the humorous theory that Jar Jar Binks was a Sith mastermind—but it also introduces the menacing Death Star. This infamous superweapon first filled movie theaters with dread in Star Wars Episode 4: A New Hope.
Rumors are circulating about the Death Star’s arrival, with some players claiming to have already spotted it menacingly hovering over the Fortnite Island. Prominent leaker ShiinaBR recently shared images from SpushFNBR and KPMisParrot showing what appears to be the large, spherical Death Star ominously positioned in the sky, its distinctive superlaser array clearly visible.
Fortnite has a history of Star Wars-themed items, even once including a transmission from Emperor Palpatine before his surprise return in The Rise of Skywalker back in 2019. However, the scale of this collaboration promises to be the biggest yet. Kicking off on May 2 and running through June, the Galactic Battle season is set to culminate in a significant event—perhaps one that mirrors the epic efforts to thwart the Death Star before it obliterates the Island.
Throughout the season, the Death Star is expected to steadily inch towards the Island, growing larger and more threatening. As it approaches, players should prepare themselves for the inevitable showdown. This looming threat harkens back to the Empire’s reign of terror, a era brought to a fateful conclusion when Luke Skywalker famously ended the Death Star’s tyranny with a precise proton torpedo in the original Star Wars film. As always, Fortnite is aligning itself with iconic pop culture narratives, offering players yet another epic cosmic clash to partake in as the season unfolds.
