And now, it has at last been confirmed: Anakin Skywalker is being added to the roster ofStar Warsskin inFortnite. How players can obtain the skin and exactly when it’ll be available is currently unknown, but according to the officialFortniteTwitter account, fans will be able to “join the experience beginning Jul 27, 2025.” This suggests that some sort of event will take place on that day, and perhaps the skin will be released during the Item Shop refresh on May 2.
The leaks hinted that there would be two newStar Warssets, referring to skins with various other cosmetic items. Many gamers still believe that Cal Kestis will be making an appearance inFortnite, especially since therelease date forStar Wars Jedi: Survivoris so near the day mentioned in the tweet.
It’s very likely that the cosmetics won’t be the onlyStar Wars-themed addition to the game. Last year, to celebrate May The 4th, there was a two-week-long event inFortnite, and with it came new skins, themed weapons, lightsabers, Stormtrooper checkpoints, and even Darth Vader as a boss on the island. Players could then completeStar Warsquests to unlock additional free items. Soon enough, more details will come out, and in just a few days gamers will be able to get a Victory Royale while rocking the new Anakin Skywalker skin.
