Epic Games has sparked excitement among Fortnite enthusiasts with the latest sneak peek into Chapter 6 Season 3, aptly titled “Galactic Battle.” This time, they are teaming up with the legendary Star Wars universe, adding a thrilling twist to the gameplay. The current season, known for its daring heist activities, is wrapping up, making way for what appears to be an epic season filled with galactic adventures.
Ahead of the grand launch on May 2, players have witnessed a cosmic spectacle with the iconic Death Star hovering ominously above the island. This tease hints at the Star Wars elements that are set to redefine the gaming landscape in this new season.
In a recent Twitter reveal, Fortnite unveiled the map that will feature notable Star Wars locales. Get ready to embark on missions at Resistance Base, navigate the eerie silence of Vader Samurai’s Solitude, explore Outpost Enclave, and strategize at First Order Base. These new areas are strategically placed across the map, presenting a challenge for players who want to explore multiple locations in one game.
Adding to the excitement, Ahmed Best, who famously played Jar Jar Binks, shared at Star Wars Celebration Japan that this season would come with a comprehensive battle pass, regular updates, and a stunning variety of new skins, including ones for Darth Jar Jar and Emperor Palpatine. Plus, players can look forward to flying in X-Wings and Tie Fighters, adding another layer to the gameplay.
Changes to Fortnite’s reboot mechanics have also stirred the community. Players now have the option to buy a teammate’s Reboot Card for 500 gold and spend 1,000 gold to revive with superior gear. Although this might come across as a pricey change, many players find it fair, balanced by the chapter’s heist mechanics that offer enhanced opportunities for collecting gold. As anticipation builds for the release of Galactic Battle, players are eager to immerse themselves in what promises to be an exhilarating new phase in the Fortnite saga.
