Epic Games has added official Star Wars assets, templates, and gameplay systems to Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN) and Fortnite Creative. Creators can now build Star Wars-themed islands using iconic characters (Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, The Mandalorian), vehicles (X-Wings, TIE Fighters), weapons, and environments like Hoth and Tatooine. Three dedicated templates cover combat with Force powers and Lightsabers, large-scale team conquest, and NPC-driven narrative/roleplaying. New mechanics include decoupled Force powers, a Hero device for character transformations, omnidirectional Jetpack flight, Niagara-powered VFX for space battles, and custom Star Wars UI elements. Star Wars islands become publishable on May 1, with creators required to join the Fortnite Developer Program, agree to IP terms, and share 20% of engagement payouts with Disney.
