Star Wars X Fortnite 2.0!

Lead Story

Darth Jar Jar is taking Fortnite prisoner!

With Disney holding a significant share of Epic (about $1.6 billion), its really no surprise that Star Wars would be making a triumphant return to the doughy, stylized universe of Fortnite.

Galactic Battles are ahead - May 2nd to be precise

While Epic may have missed the release date opportunity of the decade (May the 4th… it was right there?!), we’re hoping this new collab will not miss the mark anywhere else.

The event is chock full of Star Wars-y goodness to fill the hearts of diehard fans throughout the Fortnite ecosystem, and of course, their battle pass XP. Players can expect rebellious themed encounters , methodically designed Imperial TIE fighters and a galaxy worth of, all star, skins to collect.

The event is broken across various dates, each bringing something new and unique to the table.

• Imperial Takeover – May 2, 2025

• The Pull of the Force – May 8, 2025

• Mandalorian Rising – May 22, 2025

• Star Destroyer Bombardment – May 29, 2025

• Death Star Sabotage – June 7, 2025

While whether or not Star Wars themed props, weapons or kits will be available for Creators, is yet unknown. We always believe playing and bouncing off of the trends going on outside of the discovery page, is a great way to keep your content fresh and importantly, on the front page.

Readers should consider each of these dates as opportunities to add new features or map to their own island. We know players will come flooding into Fortnite on each of these key dates so riding that wave could be the perfect way to gaining some extra players of your own.

Havoc Hotel 3 - TeraCreators

0335-8436-1670

The latest edition of TeraCreators, Havoc Hotel is out and hard AF (their words, not ours…. but we agree). For those who have yet to pay a visit to this particular hotel, Havoc Hotel is a third person, rouge-like shooter where players must fight through various floors of enemies in order to escape.

The island features challenging mechanics, a huge array of weapons and an impressive upgrade system for you to spend all you hard earned cash on.

The level design is interesting and varied as you play through the different floors and the various enemies keep you interested throughout.

Definitely worth a check out for some inspiration and fun gameplay.
