Epic Games have pushed out a brand new Fortnite update today, 3.89, on several platforms. Here are the patch notes.

Prior to last week’s v24.30 Fortnite update, we hadn’t had a major patch release for three weeks when the usual cycle of releases is every two weeks.

However, for most of the player base, the update was worth it. The much leaked Fortnite x Star Wars collaboration went live which includes new cosmetics, a rewards pass to earn cosmetics including Darth Maul, and the return of Star Wars items.

Lightsabers are back in the game along with the other weapons we’ve seen released in the past. Unfortunately, we still don’t have a pickaxe lightsaber, but players can pick up skins including Anakin Skywalker, Padme, and the 501st and 212th Stormtroopers.

The v24.30 Fortnite update also included force training that allows players to train in order to get abilities including sprinting faster and the ability to double jump while your lightsaber is equipped.

Players can also lift and throw objects from the environment and hurl them at players. If you accept Anakin Skywalker’s training, you’ll be able to pull objects and players towards you.

With last week’s update, players weren’t expecting to receive a notification to download the latest version of Fortnite, 3.89. Here’s what you need to know about the May 9th, 2023 update.

Fortnite Update 3.89 Patch Notes – 9th May 2023

Epic Games announced on the official Fortnite Status Twitter account that they released a maintenance Fortnite update (3.89) on May 9th, 2023.

The new update is available to download on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and Android.

Unfortunately, there’s nothing new that’s been added today, and the new release only addresses stability issues that have been plaguing the game for the past couple of weeks.

With the new season of Fortnite a month ago, Epic will release one or two more major updates before then with the next update scheduled for next Tuesday.

New leaks point towards a Goku Black Fortnite skin coming to the game. Here’s what we know.

Since their first collaboration back in Fortnite chapter 1 season 3, Epic Games has continued to build on their metaverse, especially in the last couple of years.

A handful of collaborations stretch beyond just having cosmetics available in the item shop. The most recent collaboration with Star Wars includes quests that provide players with free cosmetics.

There’s also a premium rewards track for the Star Wars collaboration that’s available for 1,000 V-Bucks that will provide access to Darth Maul and other cosmetics not available in the free rewards track.

We usually get a few collaborations each season, so we’re expecting a couple more before the end of the current season. As usual, data miners have provided some information for the next collaboration.

If leaks are correct, there will be another Fortnite x Dragon Ball collaboration. Here are the details we have so far.

Goku Black Fortnite

According to a reliable data miner and leaker, G Matrix Games, there are textures in the current Fortnite files for a Goku Black Fortnite skin.

The model is different from the current Son Goku outfit that was released with the first Dragon Ball x Fortnite collaboration.

It also looks like there’s a style for Goku Black that’s Super Saiyan Rosé. Along with the finding of the new skin, there’s a chance we could see a remodel of the original Goku skin, but we’ll have to wait and see.

Along with the new outfit, a Dual-Wield pickaxe will be released alongside an Emote and Wrap.

When is Goku Black Coming to Fortnite? Release Date

It’s likely that the Goku Black Fortnite skin and the Super Saiyan Rosé style will be available to purchase on Goku Day, which is on May 9th.

If that’s the case, we should get confirmation or a teaser posted by Epic Games before the release date.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Fortnite Star Wars “Find the Force” event including all the cosmetic rewards available.

Epic Games released a major Fortnite update today after three weeks, v24.30. We knew what to expect in today’s patch with Epic announcing a Star Wars x Fortnite event last week.

However, players weren’t aware of the extent of the latest collaboration with Star Wars. There are four new Star Wars skins along with other cosmetics available to purchase in bundles or individually.

There’s also a Find the Force Fortnite event tab. The tab explains the event, links to the quests, and provides a look at all of the cosmetic rewards that are available.

Here’s the list of current quests available along with all the cosmetics that are unlockable during Find the Force.

The Force Within Fortnite Quests

The Force Within is the first set of Star Wars-themed quests that are currently available to complete. Here’s a list of the quests:

• Land during Find the Force (5)
• Learn Force abilities at Rift Gates in different matches (3)
• Search a Republic chest (1)
• Hire a character (1)
• Damage an enemy player that is wielding a lightsaber or DC-15 Blaster (1)
• Destroy objects with Force abilities or a Star Wars weapon (50)
• Collect ammo at named locations (250)
• Launch Kinetic Ore with a Star Wars weapon (2)
• Travel distance on foot at night (500)
• Travel distance in vehicles (1,1338)
• Survive storm phases (25)
• Travel distance while sprinting (1,000)

What is Galactic Reputation in Fortnite?

Galactic Reputation was added as part of the Find the Force Fortnite Star Wars event. It provides players with the chance to unlock certain cosmetic rewards during the event.

In order to earn Galactic Reputation, players need to complete the challenges above.

Find the Force Fortnite Rewards

There are both free and premium rewards in the Find the Force event. The premium rewards pass costs 1,000 V-Bucks to unlock, but you’ll still need to earn Galactic Reupation in order to unlock them.

Here’s a look at all of the rewards including Darth Maul:

Upon completing all of the Find The Force quests, players will unlock the Light vs Dark loading screen.

Data miners have leaked the Fortnite Star Wars skins from the v24.30 update. As expected, both Darth Maul and Padme will be available to purchase from the item shop.

It’s been three weeks since the last major Fortnite update. However, players have been happy to wait for today’s v24.30 update thanks to the collaboration that was announced by Epic Games last week.

As expected, during downtime for today’s update, data miners have leaked the new Star Wars Fortnite skins. There’s a total of four skins that will be available to purchase from the item shop.

Here’s a look at all of the new Star Wars skins thanks to popular data miners ShiinaBR and Hypex.

Clone Trooper Fortnite Star Wars Skin

Epic has decided to release two different Clone Trooper skins, both of which can be purchased from the 501st and 212th Battalion Trooper Pack along with a Clone Trooper Wrap Pack.

Anakin Skywalker Fortnite Skin

Epic Games announced the latest Star Wars x Fortnite collaboration by posting an image of the Anakin Skywalker skin. However, we now know that back bling, pickaxe, glider, wrap, and spray are part of the set.

Padmé Amidala Skin

One of the skins we weren’t expecting Epic to release was a Padmé Amidala outfit. The Padmé bundle includes a glider, pickaxe, and a back bling.

Fortnite Darth Maul Skin

It’s unlikely anyone expected Epic Games to release a Darth Maul skin in the v24.30 update but here we are. It’s likely this will be the go-to Fortnite Star Wars skin for the next few weeks.

Here’s a close-up of the Darth Maul Fortnite skin:

Here’s a look at more of the skin from the Star Wars Fortnite promo asset:

How to get Darth Maul in Fortnite

Based on the information the data miners have provided, it looks like Darth Maul will be the only skin not available to purchase from the item shop.

Instead, it appears as though it will be a reward at the end of the current season, possibly an extra Battle Pass rewarded or a crew reward.

UPDATE: It looks like it’ll be part of the Find the Force event pass.

The other cosmetics will be available to purchase from the item shop as soon as downtime is over for the 24.30 update. It’s likely they’ll be available to purchase for the next week or so.

Here’s everything you need to know about today’s (May 2nd, 2023) Fortnite 24.30 (3.88) update including the Star Wars collaboration event.

Epic Games usually release a new major Fortnite patch update every two weeks. However, this hasn’t been the case in chapter 4 season 2.

The last major release, 24.20, was released more than three weeks ago. However, we did get a content update last week which saw the old SMG being vaulted with the legendary variant being made available.

Players haven’t been too concerned with the lack of major Fortnite updates this season. That’s mainly in part to the upcoming Star Wars x Fortnite collaboration that was leaked by data miners a few weeks ago.

However, Epic Games confirmed the latest Fortnite x Star Wars collaboration in a tweet, confirming an Anakin Skywalker skin would be coming to the game.

With the v24.30 (3.88) Fortnite update now being confirmed by the official Fortnite Status Twitter account, we can take a look at what we can expect from the latest release.

Fortnite Update 24.30 Server Downtime Time (05/02/23)

Whenever there’s a major patch being released, there’s always downtime in order to prepare the servers for the latest release.

Epic will always announce when server downtime is expected to take place and the 3.88 update is no different. The Fortnite Status Twitter account confirmed when downtime will begin.

The servers will go down for scheduled maintenance on May 2nd, 2023 at 3 AM ET / 8 AM BST / 9 AM CEST. Matchmaking will be disabled shortly before the given time, likely thirty minutes prior.

Here’s the official tweet from the status account:

As with every release, Epic hasn’t announced how long the servers will be down or when we can expect them to be back online. However, based on previous updates this year, it’s safe to assume they’ll be down for at least two hours.

That means the servers should be back online at roughly 5 AM ET / 10 AM BST / 11 AM CEST. We’ll update this article when the game is back online.

Fortnite 3.88 (v24.30) Update Early Patch Notes – May 2nd, 2023

Star Wars Collaboration Event

The biggest talking point of today’s 3.88 (24.30) Fortnite update is Fortnite and Star Wars collaborating once again to celebrate Star Wars day.

Fortnite Star Wars Skins

We already know from Epic Games’ tweet that Anakin Skywalker will be available to purchase from the item shop. There has been no other official information regarding the collaboration.

However, thanks to data miners, we do know that there will be at least one more Star Wars Fortnite skin that’ll be added to the game in the new downloadable patch release.

Star Wars Weapons

We also know that Lightsabers will once again be making a return to the game alongside the E-11 blasters.

We’ll also be getting new “force” Mythic items along with a new blaster weapon being added to the loot pool. Apart from that, we don’t have any further information on the collaboration.

We’ll be covering all of the leaks from the 24.30 (3.88) update, so be sure to check back on this page for all the latest leaks, news, and guides.

Here are the locations of Titan Targets in Fortnite in order to complete the Eren Jaeger hit the nape of different titan targets with ODM Gear Attacks quest.

After what seems like an eternity, the Fortnite Eren Jaeger skin is finally available to unlock from the Chapter 4 Season 2 Battle Pass.

Along with Eren, Epic Games have released Captain Levi and Mikasa Ackermann as skins available to purchase from the Fortnite Item Shop.

There is also two Mythic Attack on Titan items that have been added to the game. Both Thunder Spears and ODM Gear can be found around the map as floor loot, in chests, and in Scout Regiment Footlockers.

The Scout Regiment Footlocker and the Mythic items need to be used in order to complete the Eren Jaeger challenges.

One of the quests requires players to Hit the Nape of Different Titan Targets with ODM Gear Attacks. Here are the locations where you can find titan targets in Fortnite.

Where to find ODM Gear?

In order to complete this challenge, players will first need to find themselves ODM Gear. ODM Gear can be found as floor loot, in chests, or in scout regiment footlockers.

Hit the Nape of Different Titan Targets All Fortnite Map Locations

One of the locations where you can find a titan target in order to hit the nape is on the northwest side of the map.

It’s located west of The Citadel and is near the edge of the map. Here’s the location you’ll want to go to:

At this particular location, players will be able to find ODM Gear in the Guard Towers either on the floor or in the footlockers.

To find the Titan Targets, you’ll see an exclamation mark on the map. Here’s what they look like in-game:

Aim at the neck and use the R2 / RT button on your controller to use the attack option with the ODM Gear. The nape is located on the back of the titan as seen in the image above.

You’ll find more Titan Targets in Fortnite at the below locations:

• Shattered Slabs – on the north side.

• Near the middle of the map south of Anvil Square and east of Shattered Slabs.

• Anvil Square – on the northeast side.

Thanks to our amazing friends over at Fortnite.gg, we have the other locations of the Titans:

Here’s the location where players can find Jaeger’s family basement in Anvil Square in order to complete one of the new Eren Jaeger quests.

Players have been waiting for the day that the Eren Jaeger Fortnite skin would be available to unlock from the Battle Pass tab.

Prior to the season starting, data miners leaked that Eren Jaeger would be in the Chapter 4 Season 2 Battle Pass, and it’s now available to unlock.

As expected, players will need to complete numerous challenges in order to unlock the Eren Jaeger skin along with other cosmetics in the set.

One of the quests requires players to find Jaeger’s Family Basement in Avil Square. For those of you that are struggling to complete this challenge, we’ve created a quick guide to help you out.

Where to find Jaeger’s Family Basement in Anvil Square in Fortnite

As given away by the quest itself, you can find Jaeger’s Family Basement in Anvil Square. The named location is a great place to land in general as it appears as though there’s a higher chance to find the new Attack on Titan Mythic items.

Both the Thunder Spear and ODM Gear are now available in the game, both of which can be found as floor loot, from chests, and from the new Scout Regiment Footlockers.

However, you’re here to find out where Jaeger’s Family Basement in Anvil Square is.

You’ll find it in one of the buildings near the Reboot Van. If you start off from the stone bridge that connects to Anvil Square on the east side, head west to the furthest building on the left.

Go around to enter the bottom part of the building and on your left, there’s a set of stairs you can go down to enter Jaeger’s Family Basement in Fortnite.

Here’s the basement marked on the map:

Here are the stairs you’ll want to walk down:

ODM Gear has been added to the game in today’s v24.20 Fortnite update. Here’s how you can find the Attack on Titan Mythic item easily.

Prior to Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 release, there were several leaks in regards to what we could expect to see in the new season.

From the leaks, we knew an Attack on Titan x Fortnite collaboration would be coming to the game. Eren Jaeger was confirmed to be in the new Battle Pass along with a Mythic item.

Unfortunately, players couldn’t unlock Eren Jaeger until today. Along with the outfit finally being available to unlock, other Attack on Titan cosmetics are available.

There are also two mythic items available, ODM Gear and Thunder Spears.

Fortnite Thunder Spears

Thunder Spears can be found as floor loot, chests, and Scot Regiment Footlockers. Thunder Spears are arm-launched rockets that can penetrate armored structures.

Fortnite – Where to Find ODM Gear Locations

The Mythic Attack on Titan item that players will be looking to get their hands on is the ODM Gear.

It can be found as floor loot, from chests, and Scout Regiment Footlockers. Having ODM Gear equipped will provide players with the ability to grapple in the air and strike opponents below them.

Once you’ve attacked with the built-in blades, you’ll be boosted back into the air to allow you to continue using the ODM Gear to grapple onto other objects.

One of the quickest and easiest ways to find ODM Gear in Fortnite is to head to Anvil Square. It appears as though there’s a higher chance of finding the item as ground loot at this location.

Epic Games have announced a brand new Fortnite update releasing on April 11th, 2023, 24.20 (3.87). Here are the early patch notes including information on server downtime.

Two weeks ago, Epic Games released the first major patch update for chapter 4 season 2. The release included challenges for the Spring Breakout event.

The event allows players to get their hands on limited-time Easter-themed cosmetics that can be obtained by completing a certain amount of challenges.

Rewards include a back bling, spray, loading screen, pickaxe, and glider. If you’ve not logged into Fortnite since 24.10, here’s a look at some of those free cosmetics:

Aside from the Spring Breakout challenges and rewards, there wasn’t too much other content that was added. The Easter Egg Launcher was unvaulted and new eggs were added to the game as floor loot.

Thankfully Epic Games have announced that the v24.20 (3.87) Fortnite update will be released today. Here is what we know so far about the upcoming release.

Fortnite Scheduled Server Downtime – 11th, April 2023 – Is Fortnite Down?

As you’ll know by now, Epic Games take down the Fortnite servers prior to a new update release. Today’s 3.87 Fortnite update is no different and Epic has announced when scheduled maintenance will begin.

The servers will go down at 3 AM ET / 8 AM BST / 9 AM CEST. However, matchmaking will be disabled shortly beforehand, likely thirty minutes prior.

In the tweet announcing the new update on the Fortnite Status Twitter account, Epic stated that the patch size for the 24.20 (3.87_ update will be larger than normal.

Here’s the official tweet:

We’ll update this section of the article when the servers are back online. Typically, the servers are down for two hours, so expect them to come back online at roughly 5 AM EST / 10 AM BST.

Fortnite  Update 3.87 (24.20) Patch Notes – April 11th

Thanks to leak from the previous patch release, we know some of the content we can expect to see in today’s update.

Epic Games already announced that both the Mikasa and Levi Fortnite skins will be available to purchase in the item shop on April 11th.

It’s likely that as soon as the servers are back online, players will be able to purchase the new Attack on Titan cosmetics from the shop.

We’ll also be getting Attack on Titan Mythic items added to the loot pool including the waist grappler that’s been teased several times already.

The Attack on Titan Eren Jaeger Battle Pass skin will also be available to unlock by completing challenges that’ll be released in the 3.87 update.

In-Game creator profile will also be making their way into the game along with new Reality Augments being added to the game.

There’s a chance we could be getting a new item, the Smart Pistol, that was teased in the gameplay trailer for the new season.

The Hiss Clique Quest Pack will also be added to the game along with a new Coachella collaboration.

During downtime, we’ll be posting all the leaks from the v24.20 Fortnite update, so be sure to check out all of our coverage over here.

Epic Games have confirmed the release of the Mikasa and Levi Attack On Titan Fortnite skins.

It’s almost been a month since Epic Games released Fortnite chapter 4 season 2. The season has gone down well with the player base thanks to the map changes and the addition of several new items.

There’s no arguing that the Kinetic Blade is the most popular addition in season 2. In terms of the most popular Battle Pass skin, that’s a toss-up.

However, players are still awaiting the arrival of the Attack on Titan Fortnite Eren Jaeger skin that’ll be available to unlock shortly.

Players won’t have to wait long until they can get their hands on other Attack on Titan Fortnite skins though. Epic Games released a teaser video showcasing two upcoming collaboration skins.

Attack on Titan Mikasa and Levi Fortnite Skins

Epic Games released a video showcasing two new Attack on Titan Fortnite skins that’ll be available this month. Both Mikasa and Levi will be entering the Fortnite universe.

There will more than likely be other cosmetics that will be available in the item shop when the two new skins drop. However, it’s unlikely that we’ll get a good look at all of the new cosmetics until next week’s update.

Release Date

Epic usually releases a new major Fortnite update every two weeks. The next major patch falls on April 11th, 2023, which is when the v24.20 update is scheduled to release.

The Mikasa and Levi Fortnite skins will be available to purchase on the same date, April 11th. It’s likely the new Attack on Titan Fortnite cosmetics will be available to purchase as soon as the downtime for the update is over.
