“It’s Time” – Latest Fortnite Leak Springs Massive Surprise for Star Wars Fans

Fortnite fans are in for a massive treat as the Star Wars celebration happens to be the main attraction in this week moving forward. So how could the battle royale from Epic Games stay away from its force? Well, it’s also joining the fun as the latest leak reportedly confirms the arrival of the Lightsaber Cup.

All the gaming enthusiasts will surely rejoice after knowing that the event is seemingly making a debut on Tuesday itself in Fortnite. By all means, it’s just great for the hardcore Star Wars fanboys.

Fans express their joy as Fortnite leak reveals the Star Wars Lightsaber Cup!

In case anyone missed it, the Epic Games title previously had a crossover with the Galaxy Far, Far Away during the release of Disney’s movie under the last trilogy.

In that collaboration, players were offered to choose between the skins based on Rey, Kylo Ren, and Sith Trooper. And of course, the Lightsabers were there, too, for their convenience.

Now it looks like Fortnite is once again ready to bring the epic crossover for its players. According to one of the trusted scoopers, Shiina on Twitter, Star Wars is coming to the battle royale sooner than expected. Because Star Wars Day, aka May 4th, falls this week. So it makes total sense for the event to begin at the same time as well.

Going by Shiina’s leaked information, the Lightsabers are returning on Tuesday in Fortnite with the possible “Star Wars-Lightning Cup”.

A few days back, there were rumors doing the rounds that the said crossover would arrive with the launch of the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series on Disney Plus, which is releasing on May 27, 2022. But the newest update has now reportedly confirmed that the surprise is almost here now for all the Fortnite and Star Wars lovers.
