Skywalker Week in Fortnite 22.30 update
The event runs until November 8, and you’ll be able to find Luke’s blue and green lightsabers, Darth Vader’s saber and the E-11 Blaster Rifle around the map. That’s not all though, as the unvaulted Junk Rift has a chance of dropping Luke’s X-34 Landspeeder.
The Original Trilogy Set Grows
It’s no longer just the Imperial Stormtrooper in the Original Trilogy Set. The following Original Trilogy Outfits and accessories are now available in the Item Shop:
Luke Skywalker Items
- Luke Skywalker Outfit: Force-sensitive farmer and galactic hero.
- Training Remote Back Bling: You better get on with your exercises. (Included with the Luke Skywalker Outfit.)
- Slugthrower Rifle Pickaxe: Trusty rifle to have at your side while navigating the Jundland Wastes.
- X-34 Landspeeder Glider: Ever since the XP-38 came out, they just aren’t in demand.
Leia Organa Items
- Leia Organa Outfit: Princess. Senator. Rebel. Icon.
- R2-D2 Back Bling: Plucky astromech droid. (Included with the Leia Organa Outfit.)
- Electrostaff Pickaxe: One of many weapons in a bounty hunter’s arsenal.
Han Solo Items
- Han Solo Outfit: Smuggler. Scoundrel. Scruffy-looking nerf herder.
- Millennium Falcon Back Bling: She may not look like much, but she’s got it where it counts, kid. (Included with the Han Solo Outfit.)
- Vibro-staff Pickaxe: Boba Fett™? Where?
More in v22.30: The Pulse Rifle Returns

Unvaulted items in Fortnite 22.30 update
Fortnite’s 22.30 update unvaults Darth Vader’s Lightsaber, the E-11 Blaster Rifle, and Junk Rifts for Skywalker Week, but it also unvaults the Pulse Rifle.
You can find all of these unvaulted items around the map, but you’re best looking in Imperial Chests for the Star Wars items.
