Once more, Fortnite and Star Wars are set to merge, with the Galactic Battle anticipated to be their largest team-up to date, a joint effort by these two massive entertainment giants.
As the months pass, this upcoming season will span five distinct segments, each one gradually incorporating fresh gameplay aspects such as piloting X-Wings and TIE Fighters – legendary starships from the Star Wars saga.
At Star Wars Celebration in Japan, an announcement was made that generated quite a buzz, as it unveiled Darth Jar Jar’s debut in Fortnite – his initial foray into video games. Additionally, it revealed the addition of Force Lightning as a fresh attack option.
At the event, Ahmed Best, who played Jar Jar Binks, was present to reveal the ominous counterpart of his character, initially conceived by fans as a speculative twist on George Lucas’s controversial character from the Star Wars prequel trilogy.
