Note this particular challenge is no longer able to be completed. What's new? Chapter 3 Season 3 has arrived! New additions include Reality Seeds and Saplings and riding animals, along with the new Battle Pass, characters collection and map changes. It's a good idea to know how to get XP fast in Fortnite.
Fortnite Star Wars Day May the 4th challenges and rewards explained
Starting the 3rd of May, you can complete special May the 4th challenges in Fortnite to get XP. If five of the six special quests are completed before the end of the Fortnite Star Wars Day celebrations, you will get the Empire Banner.
Each Star Wars May the 4th quest rewards 30k XP when completed, for a total of 180,000 XP for completing them all. Here are the all May the 4th Star Wars quests:
- Land at a Stormtrooper Checkpoint, then place top 25 (1)
- Complete a bounty from a Stormtrooper (1)
- Block hits using a Lightsaber (10)
- Damage opponents within 30 meters using the E-11 Blaster Rifle (1,000)
- Drive a vehicle from Chonker’s Speedway or Logjam Lumberyard to a Stormtrooper Checkpoint (1)
- Survive storm phases while carrying a Lightsaber (5)
You will need to find a Lightsaber in order to complete a few of these quests. Lightsabers are included in the Star Wars Day update until the event ends.
The Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 is almost here! Before then, make sure you get any remaining Battle Pass rewards you want, unlock the Indiana Jones skin (give yourself plenty of time to solve the secret door past the main chamber in Shuffled Shrines puzzle!) and be sure to spend those gold bars. Meanwhile, learn how to flesh out your character collection and learn how to earn the Victory Umbrella and Victory Crowns.
