May is upon us, and if you're a Fortnite player, that can only mean one thing: Star Wars content. Each year, Epic Games gets a complete takeover from a galaxy, far, far away.
This time, it won't exactly be a mini-season but rather a series of content drops as part of Chapter 7 Season 2, which started in early March. This will include Fortnite Creative maps as well as a bunch of other events throughout the month.
If you don't want to miss out on all of them, bookmark this page as I'll break down all the Star Wars x Fortnite 2026 content coming in the coming days.
