Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 Adds Star Wars Crossover

Fortnite's Chapter 6 Season 3, launching May 2, introduces 'Galactic Battle,' the game's largest Star Wars crossover yet, featuring four new themed POIs: Vader Samurai's Solitude, Resistance Base, First Order Base, and Outpost Enclave. New Star Wars vehicles, including TIE Fighters and X-Wings, will be available, along with returning lightsabers as weapons and, for the first time, possibly as pickaxes. The battle pass offers crossover skins such as Darth Sidious, General Grievous, Poe Dameron, Darth Jar Jar, and a Chewbacca-inspired Team Leader, as well as customizable Mandalorian armor. Additional themed loot, like a lootable Sandcrawler, will appear on the map, with mid-season POI changes hinted through leaks. These updates are expected to significantly impact gameplay strategies and the competitive meta. The season launches in conjunction with Star Wars Day on May 4, drawing excitement from both Fortnite and Star Wars fans.
