The Galactic Battle season in Fortnite is set to end with a dramatic finale, as players prepare to face off against the Empire in the Death Star Sabotage live event. Packed with action, cinematic moments, and exclusive rewards, this Star Wars-themed event is one of Fortnite's most anticipated showdowns yet.
When is the Death Star Sabotage event?
The Death Star Sabotage live event will take place on Saturday, June 7, 2025, at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET / 11:30 PM IST. This is a one-time, in-game event, so players are encouraged to log in early.
From two hours before the event begins, the event tile will appear at the top of the Discover tab. This gives players enough time to squad up, enter the queue, and even pilot an X-wing or TIE fighter while waiting. The event supports parties of up to four players.
How to join the event
Joining the event is simple. Log into Fortnite ahead of the start time and look for the Death Star Sabotage tile. Tap it to enter the lobby and get into the mood with some pre-event Star Wars action.
For players away from their primary gaming device, Fortnite is also available via mobile (Android, iOS in select regions) and cloud services like Xbox Cloud Gaming, NVIDIA GeForce NOW, and Amazon Luna.
What to expect from the event
The stakes are high. Emperor Palpatine's Death Star superlaser is primed to destroy the Battle Royale Island, and it's up to players to stop it.

Actress Surveen Chawla , known for her versatile work across television, films, and web series, recently opened up about the harsh realities of working in the Indian television industry during a candid conversation with Hauterrfly. Reflecting on her early career, Surveen spoke honestly about the toxic environment, lack of respect, and dehumanizing treatment she experienced. Surveen, who began her career with Balaji Telefilms' Kahiin Toh Hoga, recalled the overwhelming pressure she felt as a newcomer. 'I would shoot for Balaji for four days a week. Aisa lagta tha ke qayanat ka haath hai mere sir pe. I had no experience in this field. People would laugh at my accent,' she shared. Describing the daily grind of TV shoots, she added, 'In television, it's like you're treated like cattle—gai bhains jaisi treatment hoti hai. It's a factory setup. There's a deadline, episodes need to be delivered. So who are you? You're just another body working. You're not at home, you're a product in the system.' Surveen also shared a disturbing experience from her time on Kahiin Toh Hoga, involving a problematic director. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Tukarkan Bitcoin dan Ethereum - Tanpa Dompet Diperlukan!

'It's unfortunate but true. I may get flak for saying this about someone who gave me my break, but I don't appreciate it. Paying someone for their work doesn't mean you own them.'

Lip reader reveals cheeky promise Travis Hunter's wife Leanna Lenee made at wedding
A lip reader has revealed what Travis Hunter's wife, Leanna Lenee, said to him after she appeared to dodge a kiss on their wedding day. The couple tied the knot last week at The Barn at Faith Farms in Athens, Tennessee. After saying their vows, Hunter surprised Lenee with a black Mercedes-Benz AMG G63 Brabus 800 — a luxury SUV reportedly worth around $300,000. Their relationship has been under the spotlight lately, with critics online questioning Lenee's behavior toward Hunter. Some accused her of not showing enough support when he won the 2024 Heisman Trophy. The backlash got so loud that Hunter felt the need to defend her publicly. Still, at the wedding, the couple looked happy, surrounded by loved ones. During their first dance, they shared a private moment that caught people's attention — and now, a lip-reading expert named Nicola Hickling has shed light on what they actually said. As Hunter leaned in for a kiss, he appeared to say: 'Kiss me now babe.' But Lenee pulled back and, while shaking her head, seemed to reply: 'Not now, we're gonna make love all night,' as per Mirror report. Hunter didn't seem to mind. He smiled and responded: 'Yeah.' Also Read: Rome's 'Hollywood on the Tiber' plans comeback despite Trump tariff threat Later, the couple posted photos from the wedding on social media along with heartfelt messages. Hunter wrote, 'Just two kids living out everything they talked about at 18 & 19 years old. 224.' Lenee shared, 'On 02/26/2022 you first asked me to be your girlfriend. Now 3.5 years later, on 05/24/2025, I became you wife. You make me the happiest woman on this planet and I am so excited to spend forever with you.' Hunter and Lenee have been together since 2022, through his college football career at both Jackson State and Colorado. But lately, their relationship has faced criticism after a few tense moments were caught on camera. At the Heisman Trophy ceremony in New York, Lenee made headlines when Colorado coach Deion Sanders had to nudge her to stand and clap for Hunter. A few days earlier, she was seen getting upset when fans asked Hunter for photos at a meet-and-greet. Hunter addressed the criticism during a Twitch stream, defending Lenee and pushing back at the negativity. 'You ain't never had no girl, so why y'all talking about me? Find something else to talk about,' he said.
