gameinformer.com:

It's almost May 4, otherwise known as Star Wars Day on May the 4th (be with you), and like every year, Fortnite has a special event happening in-game to celebrate. 

This year, the focus is on the Star Wars prequels and the characters within them, like Anakin Skywalker, Padme Amidala, Darth Maul, various Clonetroopers, and more. Some of these skins will be available to earn by completing in-game Star Wars quests while others are available for purchase from the Fortnite Item Shop. 

Let's break down everything going on in this year's Fortnite x Star Wars event: 

This year's activities will be part of a questline called Find the Force. By completing Find the Force quests, you can unlock cosmetic and level-up rewards in a free reward track, including the Clone Trooper Outfit. However, you can also purchase a Premium Reward Track upgrade for additional rewards on top of those free track rewards, like the Darth Maul Outfit (and the Coruscant Guard Outfit immediately upon purchasing the Premium Reward Track upgrade). The Premium Reward Track upgrade costs 1000 V-Bucks and contains 11 unlockable rewards, with Darth Maul being the final reward. It also features the Wolf Pack Trooper Outfit and the Ahsoka's Clone Trooper Outfit. 

In the Fortnite Item Shop, you can purchase the Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala Outfits as well as the 501st Trooper and 212th Batallion Trooper Outfits.

These Force abilities can be used while wielding your lightsaber,
