Fortnite Celebrates Star Wars Day 2022
Fortnite has revealed new plans to celebrate Star Wars Day 2022 with the return of Lightsabers, Item Shop cosmetics and more.
Lightsabers Return
After weeks of rumours and leaks on their return, Lightsabers have finally been reintroduced to Fortnite. The Luke Skywalker, Kylo Ren and Mace Windu Lightsabers have all been unvaulted, along with the new Obi-Wan version which replaces Rey's for this year.
