As you can see, this patch will rope in another Star Wars crossover, which is understandable given we are very close to Star Wars Day (May 4). While no schedule has been revealed, expect the downtime to take at least 2-3 hours, with servers going back up around 6am ET/3am PT/6pm HKT.

Same as always, we’ll be posting the patch notes and datamined content once it’s live, so make sure to bookmark our Fortnite game hub! Refresh it from time to time, and you’ll see the article up once the download is live.
