'Fortnite' Adding Obi-Wan Kenobi Outfit And Items Next Week

by Rainier on May 20, 2022 @ 9:54 a.m. PDT

Fortnite is an expansive original world that invites players to be creative, resourceful and collaborative, combining building skills and destructible environments with intense PvP combat.

In Fortnite, players and their friends lead a group of Heroes to reclaim and rebuild a homeland that has been left empty by a mysterious darkness only known as “the Storm.”

Players will band together online to explore the world for resources, build extravagant forts, find or build insane weapons and traps as they protect their towns from the strange monsters that emerge during the Storm.

Fortnite Battle Royale is the FREE 100-player PvP mode in Fortnite. One giant map. A battle bus.

The last one standing wins.


The rumors of his presence were true: the Obi-Wan Kenobi Outfit will be available in the Fortnite Item Shop on Thursday, May 26, 2022, at 8 PM ET, alongside an Obi-Wan Back Bling, Pickaxe, Glider, and more!

Wanna put your skill to the test? Compete in the Obi-Wan Kenobi Cup on May 22 for a chance to earn the Outfit and Back Bling before their Item Shop debut.

In addition to the Obi-Wan Kenobi Outfit, these intergalactic items are also available in the Item Shop:

  • Desert Essentials Back Bling (included with the Outfit): An assortment of tools perfect for living an isolated existence on a remote desert planet.
  • Obi-Wan’s Blade Pickaxe: An elegant harvesting tool for a more civilized age.
  • Jedi Interceptor Glider: Your new fighter has arrived.
  • Obi-Wan’s Message Emote: An important transmission…

The Obi-Wan Kenobi Outfit, Desert Essentials Back Bling, Obi-Wan’s Blade Pickaxe, Jedi Interceptor Glider, and Obi-Wan’s Emote are available individually or together in the Obi-Wan Kenobi Bundle. This bundle additionally includes the Kenobi, Surrounded Loading Screen.
