Vader is expected to be featured in the Chapter 3 Season 3 Battle Pass as the Level 100 Outfit, breaking the cycle of Marvel characters who have been included since Chapter 2 Season 8. Fans of both Fortnite and Star Wars have been waiting for this crossover since the Imperial Stormtrooper Outfit was revealed in November 2019. Darth Vader will be the eleventh Star Wars character to arrive in Fortnite, provided that Obi-Wan Kenobi isn't introduced in May for the upcoming Disney+ series.
