The exclusive Imperial Stormtrooper skin comes to the Item Shop today, as part of a new Fortnite x Star Wars crossover — likely to celebrate the release of Jedi: Fallen Order today.
Other items for today include the Gutbomb and Hothouse skins.
General Information
The store in Fortnite Battle Royale is refreshed daily, and offers new cosmetic items for use in the game.
These purchases are strictly decorative, and do not offer any advantage in game.
There are four types of items in the shop:
- Skins that change the appearance of the character you control.
- Gliders that change the appearance of the parachute you use to descend on the map,
- Harvesting equipment that changes the appearance of the pickaxe your character uses to destroy objects on the map and collect resources.
- Emotes are animations that your character can perform on command.
- Animations can consist of a simple wave, acrobatics or dances.
- Each animation has its own sound effects, and almost all the dances are accompanied by a melody of their own.
The shop is divided into two parts: the Featured Items section, which contains items that are generally more rare, more expensive and typically remain available in the shop for forty-eight hours.
The second is Daily Items. and always contains two skins, two emotes, a glider and a pickaxe. Items in this category are less rare and less expensive, and will only remain available in the shop for 24 hours.
To date, it is one of the largest partnerships Epic Games has ever entered into for its flagship game, Fortnite. A video teaser announced the beginning of the new collaboration with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which begins with the implementation of the Stormtrooper skin in the store.
