Force Abilities
As Star Wars enters Fortnite Island, players need to decide who they want as their mentor. Their choices include the legends of this universe, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker and Darth Maul as their Jedi or Sith trainers. The Force abilities and Lightsabers the players receive will also depend on the mentor they choose. All players will receive the ability to double jump and sprint faster, irrespective of the mentor they choose.
If the players choose Obi-Wan Kenobi, they receive a Green Lightsaber and Force Push Ability to Push objects and players away. If they choose Anakin Skywalker, then they receive a Blue Lightsaber Force Pull ability, which allows players to pull objects and enemies to them and lastly, Darth Maul gives players a Force Lift ability to lift objects from the environment and throw their enemies.
Find the Force Questline
Players also have the chance to earn Galactic Reputation through a new questline introduced by Fortnite. This questline consists of 11 unlockable rewards, with the Clone Trooper Outfit as the final award. Players can also opt for a Premium Reward Track upgrade which comes for a fee (1000 V-Bucks). This will fetch them even better 11 unlockable rewards, with Wolf Pack Trooper and Ahsoka’s Clone Trooper Outfits and Darth Maul’s skin as their final reward.
Find the Force Questline is a trilogy and the first set of quests starts now, the next “Begun the Clone Wars Have” quests will go live on May 7 and the “Fall of the Republic” questline will go live on May 12. Completion of each questline will grant the play a Sith Holocron. If players are able to collect 3 Sith Holocrons, then they will be rewarded with the Sith Infiltrator Glider. Moreover, Anakin Skywalker, Padmé Amidala, 501st Trooper and 212 Battalion Trooper outfits are available in the Item Shop. Players can check out more details about the update here.
