The biggest feature added to this update with the new Fortnite x Star Wars is that now not just you can join the force, you can use it! Here is how you can get these abilities:

  • First and foremost you will have to find a Star Wars character on the Fortnite map and interact with them.
  • Once your interaction is completed with them, you will enter the Rift Gate.
  • After you enter the Rift Gate, you will be granted a lightsaber and force abilities.

Rift Gates Locations:

Well, the Rift gates spawn on a random location during the map and all three of them have a different symbol related to them.

  • The Rift gates usually spawn after some time, so you will have to be attentive to the map.
  • You need to make sure you get there before someone else does if you want to obtain the power of the force.

Tip: Even though the Rift gates spawn randomly and it’s really hard to guess where they might occur. Although, being somewhere in the middle of the map will give you access to reach all the locations relatively faster.

Each one of them grants a different force ability on interacting with them. In addition to the force ability, you will also be awarded a specific lightsaber that is related to them.
