Fortnite’s collaboration with Star Wars has been a highlight for players since their first partnership in December 2019.

Critiques of the Battle Royale Mode 27n1w

Many players expressed disappointment with the 2024 Star Wars Day event in the main Battle Royale (BR) mode. Criticisms centered around what was perceived as minimal thematic integration. As one player pointed out, the additions seemed underwhelming: “It doesn’t even feel like Star Wars. One Lightsaber, a couple of Trooper NPCs, Vader & Chewbacca. I get assets went to LEGO and the music mode but still. Last year was better with skins and content.”

Despite the introduction of a new Chewbacca skin, which was well-received, the overall sentiment was that the event lacked the depth and engagement of previous years. The 2023 event, for instance, was praised for incorporating major characters like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Darth Maul as NPCs who taught players new Force abilities—features that were notably absent or underdeveloped in this year’s iteration.

In contrast to the lukewarm reception of the BR mode updates, celebrated for its comprehensive Star Wars-themed overhaul, which included multiple LEGO Lightsabers, Blasters, and Bowcasters, as well as iconic Star Wars buildings and an array of new skins. The rich content and creative execution attracted even traditional BR players, with one commenting, “It got me actually playing a lot of the LEGO mode.”

The enthusiasm for LEGO Fortnite underscores a strategic pivot in Epic Games’ approach, focusing more on this mode possibly due to its unique appeal and the fresh gameplay experiences it offers.

When I was 7, I saw Star Wars: A New Hope in theaters a week after it opened. My parents were nice enough to take me and I have been a fan of Star Wars and almost all science fiction in general. I am an amateur writer who has been published for contributing flavor text to a RP game. I also have a copyright on a novel I hope to be able to publish sometime soon.
