Summary
- Mandalorian skin comes to Fortnite shop on May 22 at 8PM ET.
- Prices: Mandalorian Warrior skin 1,800 V-Bucks, other items sold separately.
- Expect new weapons, Mandalorian NPCs, and quests.
A new Mandalorian skin is about to hit the Item Shop, and leaks have revealed the cosmetics' prices, the release date, and information on the Mandalorian weapons and items coming to Fortnite soon. Fortnite has had a lot of success when teaming up with Star Wars in the past, which is why the two have joined forces for a fully themed mini-season. When the Galactic Battle season became available on May 2, players instantly received tons of content, but then they were hit with a dry spell for over two weeks.
Thankfully, following the delay of patch v35.10, gamers finally got a Fortnite update with brand-new Star Wars content. This update introduced gamers to a speaking Darth Vader NPC powered by artificial intelligence, Jar Jar Binks skins, and several character Story Quests. Some gamers were hoping that the rumored Mandalorian character and skin would be added when the patch became available on Friday, May 16, but to avoid everything coming out all at once again, Epic Games decided to give players a week to sit back and play around with what had already put in the game.
Fortnite Players Aren’t Happy About Lightsaber-Themed Wrap
Fortnite players come together to express their disappointment with the new Saber Collector wrap in Epic Games' popular battle royale.
However, it seems that Mandalorian content will finally be making a return to Fortnite soon. According to several leakers, such as HYPEX, iFireMonkey, ShiinaBR, Loolo_WRLD, and SpushFNBR, fans can expect the highly anticipated custom Mandalorian skin to become available in the Item Shop on May 22 at 8 PM ET. Apparently, on this same day, Mandalorian items and characters will also be added to the Battle Royale island. Players can expect to be playing with several Mandalorian NPCs and unvaulted weapons and gear before the end of the week.
