Bad news for General Grievous fans: Fortnite's big mid-season patch has been delayed, leaving us another 24 hours without the bonus Star Wars battle pass track
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Fortnite has pushed back its big Star Wars-themed mid-season update and, well, it probably has something to do with Apple. It was originally meant to come out today, May 15, but has been pushed back a diabolical 24 hours to now release on May 16 instead. The most important thing here is that the update unlocks the General Grievous bonus track of the battle pass—something that'll mean a lot more to Star Wars fans than it does to me, a woman who has only half-watched some of the movies. Levels for the bonus pass have to be earned after it's unlocked—no retroactively applied progression here, unfortunately—which gives everyone one less day to nab the rewards. It's only an extra 14 levels to earn, but it's still not fun having one less day to do it all. Epic very helpfully does not give a reason for the delay. It put out an incredibly short tweet, sans bells and whistles or any actual explanation, but looking at Epic CEO Tim Sweeney's recent posts it seems like Apple may have something to do with it. If you didn't know, Fortnite is set to return to the iOS App Store after a four-year absence. Except, er, the game's been stuck in a bit of a review process limbo. Apple let Fortnite's application hang in the air for over 100 hours—something which Fortnite news account ShiinaBR called "unusually long for an App Store review". The application was then pulled, which Tim Sweeney clarified was because of the new patch. "We need to release a weekly Fortnite update with new content this Friday, and all platforms must update simultaneously," he posted. "So we have pulled the previous Fortnite version submitted to Apple App Review last Friday, and we have submitted a new version for review." I do have to wonder what'll happen if Apple simply continues to ignore Fortnite's application review, though. Will it push our cyborg lad even further back, or will Epic give up the ghost and resubmit to align with another patch further down the line? As long as it happens before my Fortnite Crew subscription expires, I'll let the delay slide this one time.

Darth Jar Jar to join Fortnite universe with v35.10 Star Wars update
Image via Epic Games Fortnite's ever-expanding universe is about to get even more chaotic and exciting. In its upcoming v35.10 update, scheduled for May 15, Epic Games is introducing a wave of fresh Star Wars content, including one of the internet's most infamous theories turned reality - Darth Jar Jar. According to credible leakers and insiders, players can expect a slew of new cosmetics, themed weapons, and gameplay enhancements tied into the ongoing Galactic Battle season . While force powers and lightsabers have already been part of recent gameplay updates, the highlight of this week's patch appears to be the long-awaited arrival of Darth Jar Jar Binks. Darth Jar Jar joins Fortnite after years of speculation First teased in the Galactic Battle trailer, Darth Jar Jar is a dark twist on the quirky Gungan character from the Star Wars prequels. Originally born as a fan theory suggesting Jar Jar Binks was secretly a Sith Lord, the character now makes his way into Fortnite's multiverse in skin form. Though Epic Games has not officially confirmed a release date, reliable sources suggest that Darth Jar Jar and other Star Wars-themed cosmetics will start appearing in the game following the May 15 update. Players could even see two different Jar Jar Binks skins, including a LEGO Fortnite version, hinting at Epic's plan to extend his reach across multiple game modes. What else is coming on May 15? Leakers like ShiinaBR have pointed out several other additions coming with the v35.10 update. The Mandalorian Jetpack, Wookiee Bowcaster, and CA-87 Jawa Scatter Blaster are all expected to be added to the loot pool. These will provide players with new ways to counter melee-based attacks like lightsabers, offering better balance during combat. Epic may also introduce more character skins, including a possible new variant of General Grievous, along with Icon Series emotes and potential crossover content. While the exact downtime has not been revealed, updates typically begin around 4 AM EDT, with servers going offline briefly for maintenance. Speculation is already heating up about what comes next for Fortnite, with rumors suggesting that Chapter 6, Season 3 could take a sharp turn toward a superhero-themed storyline. Prominent leakers like HYPEX have hinted at upcoming files pointing to capes, enhanced abilities, and skin designs that could tie in with either original heroes or even another major collaboration. For now, Fortnite fans will be glued to the Item Shop, eagerly awaiting the official drop of Darth Jar Jar and whatever surprises Epic still has up its sleeve before the next chapter begins.

New Superman skin is coming to Fortnite soon!
Fortnite fans, get ready to fly — quite literally. The Man of Steel is making a much-anticipated return to Epic Games' hit battle royale, and it looks like it's timed perfectly with the upcoming Superman movie release. According to reliable leakers ShiinaBR and FNBRintel, a brand-new Superman skin is in the works and expected to drop around the film's theatrical debut on July 11th. It's been some time since Epic Games last introduced Superman-themed content in Fortnite. Back in 2021, players could suit up in Clark Kent's classic red-and-blue outfit, or even don the slick black 'shadow' design. This time, though, the skin is expected to take cues from James Gunn's new DC Universe, offering a fresh visual inspired by the cinematic reboot. Alongside the new look, leakers are also hinting at a powerful mythic ability that will let players 'turn into Superman.' What exactly that means remains unclear, but speculation suggests it could grant players temporary invincibility or some other god-tier perk. While Gunn hasn't revealed specific details, he previously teased that 'fans could expect to see designs based on the DCU in games like Fortnite.' Superman, being the first movie in the revamped universe, seems like a natural frontrunner. The subtle updates to Clark Kent's suit in the film should offer just enough difference to justify the new skin for even the most seasoned collectors. Earlier this year, ShiinaBR explained why Fortnite had seen fewer DC skins recently. The answer? MultiVersus. Warner Bros. had been focusing heavily on that game, putting collaborations like Fortnite on the back burner. But with WB ending support for MultiVersus, the studio is now shifting focus — or as the leaker put it, a plan was initiated to 'double down' on collaborations with live-service games like Fortnite. The change in strategy could be big news for DC fans. Gunn's new Superman film will also introduce characters like Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, and Mr. Terrific, none of whom have ever appeared in Fortnite. If the film performs well at the box office, it might open the door to skins for these lesser-known heroes as well. There may never be a better opportunity. However, Epic Games hasn't made any official announcement yet, and with more than two months until the movie hits theaters, fans will have to wait a little longer for confirmation. In the meantime, Marvel fans can also get hyped: Fantastic Four: First Steps is dropping just two weeks after Superman, and Epic usually rolls out Marvel skins alongside Disney's film releases. So whether you're Team DC or Team Marvel, July is shaping up to be an epic month in Fortnite.

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.
