Fortnite early patch notes for Chapter 6 Season 3 with Star Wars skins, POIs and weapons on the way
The Galactic Battle comes to Epic Games' leading battle royale, and the Fortnite early patch notes have revealed a season stuffed with great content. Fortnite has been talking a big game about its incoming Chapter 6 Season 3, with all of its Star Wars -themed bells and whistles, but there are tiny details that we still need to know before we get too stuck into its lightsaber-swinging action. Chief among them, actually, is whether we'll actually be getting lightsabers. There are set to be several returning skins, weapons and items that reflect previous events that have pulled from the galaxy far, far away, and without any information about what they could be, all we really know is that the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 Battle Pass is being stripped away from us, and that the Black Markets of the game will no longer be a focus, setting our Outlaw Keycards back to zero (that's if they even make it into the next phase of the game). Essentially, we're in the dark, besides a few online teases that haven't really illuminated all that much. Luckily, though, there are a few methods of locking down some of the features that actually are coming to the game in the new update, and luckily for us, they point to several fixes for frustrating bugs, as well as a few new goodies for players, especially those who are interested in Fortnite Festival. So, what exactly is there to enjoy in the next season? Here's everything you need to know about the Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 early patch notes. Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 early patch notes Leaks and reveals Leaks have been thin on the ground in the run-up to Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3, but luckily, there are a few interesting tidbits to be learned – and a few details that Fortnite itself has revealed, too. Here's what you need to know about what's coming to Fortnite this season: Four new POIs – Resistance Base, First Order Base, Vader Samurai's Solitude and Outpost Enclave (via @Fortnite) A new Star Wars Battle Pass, featuring a new skin for Evie, and new appearances from Wookie Team Leader, Poe Dameron, General Greivous and Emperor Palpatine (via @Fortnite) Two new Star Wars Jam Tracks –Imperial March and Lapti Nek (Jabba's Palace) (via @FNFestival) Three incoming original Star Wars-themed Jam Tracks – Rebel's Run, The Dark Side and Where My Wookie's At (via @ShiinaBR) A new Vader-themed car (via @Fortnite) An in-game debut of the first two episodes of Star Wars' Tales of the Underworld series, featuring a free Loading Screen for viewers (via @Fortnite) A new collaboration with Ferrari (via @ShiinaBR) A potential appearance from Jango Fett, based on Poe Dameron's pistol in the Battle Pass key art (via @iFireMonkey) The potential arrival of Lightsaber Pickaxes, as deduced from the game's Battle Pass key art (via @HYPEX) There's plenty here for Star Wars fans, but frankly, it's also a nice amount of content for regular players too. It's a little early to say for sure, but it looks like Epic Games could have covered all bases comfortably with these Fortnite early patch notes. Bug fixes When it comes to seeing what is definitely coming in any given bout of Fortnite early patch notes, we can handily turn to the Fortnite community Trello board, where Epic Games developers share with fans the bugs they're aware of, and the ones that are next to appear in-game. We would usually take a look at the bugs marked as 'fixed in next game update' to see what's coming, but as we're looking at an entire seasonal changeover, we could be safe to take a look at those marked as 'fixed in future game update' instead to see what could soon be resolved. Here's everything marked as 'fixed in a future game update' on the Fortnite Community Trello board at the time of writing: General Issues Built-in Emotes do not play in Creative / UEFN Experiences – We're investigating an issue where built-in emotes, emotes attached to certain Outfits only, do not play when in a Creative or UEFN experience. The Technician Naya Outfit may have display issues in Performance mode (PC) – If the player uses Performance Mode on PC and equips or previews the Technician Naya Outfit in the Locker, they may notice visual issues of the Outfit being distorted. Lego Fortnite The scrollbar overlaps the Home Shop options in the 'Homes' app tab (PS4, Brick Life) – If the player opens the Phone app and navigates to the 'Homes' tab, they may see that the scrollbar will overlap with the Home Shop options. Save the World Players might get stuck if they use Jam Loops just before completing a mission – If the player is jamming right before their Mission ends, they might get stuck for about two minutes before they are sent back to the Homebase. This occurs if Performance Mode is used. Flutter's Wisp eliminations do not trigger 'On Elimination' effects or contribute to Combat Score – When paired with an 'on Elimination' effect ability, Flutter's Wisplight (+) Perk will not trigger the given effect, or count towards the Mission Combat Score. The Fortnite early patch notes are a lot to get stuck into, and we're barely prepared to see it all pan out. It's going to be a very big season packed into a short form factor, so we're going to have to enjoy it while it's here. We hope you didn't have any other plans in May.

Everything New Coming To ‘Fortnite' In This Week's ‘Star Wars: Galactic Battle' Season 3 Update
Fortnite Season 3 Fortnite and Star Wars have had many collaborations over the years. We've hacked our enemies down with lightsabers, taken bounties as The Mandalorian and fought our way to victory as just about every Star Wars character imaginable. But this coming season marks the biggest crossover with a galaxy far, far away so far. That's because the entire season is Star Wars-themed, with a Battle Pass that includes a whole suite of Star Wars characters like Emperor Palpatine and Jar Jar Binks, much-altered map that brings lots of fun Star Wars locations to the game, new weapons, vehicles and more. As the new season approaches, so does the Imperial Death Star, which now looms ominously in the sky above the island. Let's take a look at everything new headed to Fortnite this weekend with a Friday launch date, just in time for May the 4th, aka Star Wars Day. We'll start with the trailer: As you can see at the end of that trailer, the upcoming season will be blocked out into chapters or episodes. These include: If this is the entire season, we're looking at a shorter-than-usual run, which is probably a good idea. We wouldn't want Star Wars to outwear its welcome. Here's the newly revealed Chapter 6, Season 3 Map: Fortnite Season 3 Star Wars Map FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder As you can see, four new special locations have appeared on the map, all with a Star Wars connection. There's the Resistance Base up in the northwest corner. The dastardly First Order has set up a base in the northeast corner. In the southeast, the Outpost Enclave should give rebels more cover. And finally, in the southwest corner we have Vader Samurai's Solitude. The coolest part about this update is the addition of flyable vehicles in the form of X-Wings and TIE Fighters. The former can carry a pilot and three passengers while the former can only carry the pilot and one passenger. Lightsabers and blasters should also return, along other weapon changes. Fortnite A number of Star Wars-themed skins are headed to the Season 3 Battle Pass, including General Grievous and Poe Dameron. You can read all about the new Battle Pass skins right here. Unsurprisingly, Star Wars is also coming to LEGO Fortnite this week. There's only a brief teaser: There will be more news and announcements as we get closer to the new season, and of course plenty of updates and changes during Season 3's run. Stay tuned!
