Fortnite - Star Wars (C5S2)

Fortnite - Star Wars was a Limited-Time Event and Collaboration in Fortnite: Battle Royale, that began on May 3rd 2024 and ended on May 14th 2024.
==Introduction==
Fortnite and Star Wars are crossing over again, but not in the same way as before! On May 3 with v29.40, galactic adventure comes to different parts of the Fortnite universe: LEGO® Fortnite, Battle Royale, Fortnite Festival, and Rocket Racing. 
There’s something for every Star Wars fan in this vast crossover. Head to LEGO Fortnite to unlock Star Wars Builds and Decor, or fight off enemies with a Wookiee Bowcaster by your side in Battle Royale. Rock out in a Mos Eisley Cantina-inspired area at the Festival Jam Stage, and unlock a Podracer and Darth Maul Decal in Rocket Racing!
==Start Your Rebel Adventure==
The Galactic Empire is in hot pursuit of a band of Rebels, who need your help! The Empire and Rebels are unknowingly heading to a rift to your world, which will lead them to a new island in your world. This island will stick around even after v29.40!
Rebellion Buildin’
Before investigating the Empire crash site, you should check on your Rebel allies. You’ll receive a pair of Macrobinoculars after the crash, which will point you to the Rebel Village! This rinky-dink shelter on “Star Wars Island” needs your help becoming a full-on Rebel headquarters.
The Rebel Village can level up all the way to Level 10. How to level it up? Complete objectives like supplying resources and constructing Rebel buildings! 
If you plan to become a local hero, don’t worry about saying goodbye to your Rebel neighbors anytime soon — the Rebel Village will remain beyond v29.40!
Crash the Crash Site
Be warned — the crash of the Empire’s Star Destroyer isn’t the Empire’s end. Instead, the Empire will try to make your world their home. They’ll be surrounding the crash site with camps, and it’s up to you to infiltrate them and take back your world! After spending some time with the Rebels, find these bases with the help of your Macrobinoculars.
You can also make Macrobinoculars yourself. Unlock the recipe by adding Plastoid to your inventory!
Like the look of Imperial architecture? You can choose not to damage the camps, and keep them and their inhabitants beyond v29.40! The crash site will stay too so you can admire the remains of the Star Destroyer. (Or hey, you can destroy that too.)
==Gear from a Galaxy Far, Far Away==
Lightsabers
Are you civilized, or secretly on the dark side? Whatever your answer, different-colored Lightsabers are waiting for you in your world! You don’t get these in LEGO Fortnite by crafting them. Instead, you’ll unlock yours by helping the Rebels build up their Village! With your Lightsaber in-hand, you can collect even more.
Lightsabers are powerful tools in LEGO Fortnite. In fact, they’re so powerful they need time to recharge after combat. Use them when the time is right!
Bowcaster, Detonator, Blasters
Don’t just bow out when a foe is near. Defend yourself with these new Star Wars items craftable at a Rebel Workbench:
* Bowcaster: Launches a quarrel that deals damage then explodes in the area.
** Unlock the recipe for the Bowcaster by adding Durasteel to your inventory.
* DL-44: There's no substitution for a good blaster at your side.
** Unlock the recipe for the DL-44 by adding Durasteel to your inventory.
* E-11: Standard-issue blaster for Imperial Stormtroopers.
** Unlock the recipe for the E-11 by adding Scrap Durasteel to your inventory.
* Thermal Detonator: The bounty hunter’s detonator of choice! This thrown explosive affects a wider area than Dynamite.
** Unlock the recipe for the Thermal Detonator by adding Durasteel to your inventory.
But wait, how do you build a Rebel Workbench? You’ll unlock the recipe by adding Plastoid to your inventory! Craft in the name of the Rebellion.
Keep your Lightsabers, Bowcasters, DL-44s, E-11s, Thermal Detonators, and Rebel Workbenches even after v29.40!
