To celebrate May the 4th Be With You, aka Star Wars Day, Fortnite is bringing some Star Wars skins to sci-fi fans everywhere.

Fortnite is no stranger to Star Wars skins. There have been cosmetics and events based on the iconic series in the past, including an entire Star Wars battle pass and even Skywalker Week. Then, Epic confirmed that more Star Wars was coming on May 4th with a cryptic tweet.

The tweet didn’t say much, but fans knew it was coming on May 3. Here’s what we’ve learned since.

May the 4th Star Wars skins coming to Fortnite

There are already plenty of Star Wars skins in Fortnite but developers were clearly not done with this epic crossover. This time around, there are skins for Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian, and Dagobah Luke, the fourth Luke Skywalker variation to come to the battle royale.

All of the Star Wars skins will be available to purchase for V-Bucks inside the in-game store. Here are all of the skins and cosmetics coming to the May the 4th Be With You event:

On top of this, you can also get Star Wars-themed instruments featuring iconic helmets in Fortnite Festival, drive cars inspired by Star Wars characters in Rocket Racing, and use all of the Star Wars skins available above in LEGO Fortnite as well.

All of these Star Wars skins will drop May 3 and be available to purchase until the end of the event, which is May 20.
