Fortnite once again has done a huge thing with space and Star Wars stuff, and now players are getting ready for the Fortnite Galactic Battle Event. It’s about the Death Star and all, and this event is one big conclusion to what has been happening this season. If you wondering how to get into it or what to do, this guide helps with that.
What Is This Event Even?
So, the event is called Death Star Sabotage and it’s scheduled to happen on June 1, 2025. Players going to take part in stopping the Empire, which is always causing trouble in these things. It’s a live event which means you only get one time to be there, and it have story stuff mixed with actual gameplay. Things like cutscenes and missions all happening together in-game.
What To Do to Join?
There’s not a big list, but still a few things to keep in mind:
-
Login Early – It’s better if you are there like 30 minutes before time because sometimes it gets laggy or fills up.
-
Pick The Right Mode – Fortnite gonna show a playlist called “Death Star Sabotage” when it’s close to start. That’s the one you click.
-
Play Solo or With Team – It’s fine both ways, but going with friends maybe make it less confusing when chaos starts.
What Happens During the Event?
Things going to be pretty wild, from what Epic showed:
-
Scenes Like a Movie – There’s moments that feels like a Star Wars film, with ships flying, characters talking, dramatic music and all that.
-
Tasks and Fights – Not just watching. You’re doing things too. Running inside Death Star, fighting enemies, pressing buttons maybe.
-
You Get Rewards – At the end, you’ll unlock cosmetics like a back bling and maybe a screen. Those are only for who played the event.
Helpful Suggestions Before It Begins
-
Practice With Certain Weapons – Blasters and sabers might show up. If they do, it help if you’re used to them.
-
Listen Carefully – Don’t just run around. There’s instructions from characters or the game UI that tells you what to do.
-
Talk To Team If Possible – If you have friends, it’s easier to survive and do missions when people can say what’s going on.
