May the Fourth is fast approaching, and Epic Games is celebrating the beloved Star Wars holiday in true Fortnite fashion. This year’s festivities are bigger than ever, with a full season dedicated to a galaxy far, far away. Starting with Chapter 6 Season 3, dubbed Galactic Battle, Fortnite players can expect a themed Battle Pass, Star Wars landmarks, iconic weapons, and exclusive quests based on the legendary sci-fi saga.
Here is a quick look at the trailer for the next season from the Fortnite YouTube channel, followed by our guide on how you can get a free First Order Stormtrooper skin!
But Epic isn’t waiting for the season launch to get fans hyped, players can already claim a free First Order Stormtrooper skin, just in time to drop into the Battle Royale in style.
How to Get the Free First Order Stormtrooper Skin
As part of the lead-up to the Star Wars-themed season, Fortnite players can unlock the First Order Stormtrooper outfit for free by linking two accounts: their Epic Games account and a MyDisney account.
Here’s how to do it:
- Log in to the Epic Games website.
- Click your username in the top right corner and select Account.
- Navigate to the Apps & Accounts tab.
- Scroll to find the MyDisney logo and click Connect.
- Log in to your MyDisney account, or create one with just an email, password, and date of birth.
Once the connection is successful, the Stormtrooper skin (plus its LEGO variant) will automatically be added to your Fortnite locker.
This special collaboration marks the beginning of what’s likely to be Fortnite’s most immersive Star Wars season yet. With Disney+ increasingly integrated into gaming promotions, the partnership signals Epic's ongoing push toward cross-platform engagement.
The Galactic Battle season is expected to include even more iconic characters, themed gear, and custom locations pulled directly from the Star Wars universe. From wielding lightsabers in combat to exploring battle-damaged Imperial bases, the season aims to transport players deep into the heart of the conflict between the Resistance and the First Order.
Whether you're a long-time fan of Star Wars or just looking to score a free skin, now is the perfect time to log in and prepare for hyperspace. Just make sure to link your accounts before the offer ends, no Jedi mind tricks needed.
