Epic Games Offers Free Stormtrooper Skin for Fortnite Users

Epic Games is offering Fortnite players a free First Order Stormtrooper skin as part of its extensive Star Wars collaboration celebrating the new Galactic Battle season and the May the Fourth holiday. To receive the skin, players must link their Epic Games account with a MyDisney account, a process that requires only basic account information and does not necessitate a Disney+ subscription. Once linked, the Stormtrooper skin, including its LEGO variant, will appear in players' lockers, ready for immediate use. This promotion is part of a broader push by Epic and Disney to integrate their platforms, highlighted by special in-game events like the early premiere of 'Tales of the Underworld' and themed Star Wars locations and quests. The collaboration signals deeper cross-promotion between Epic Games and Disney, promising future interactive experiences within Fortnite. The ease of obtaining the skin and the season-long Star Wars festivities are designed to attract both Star Wars fans and Fortnite players to the evolving universe within the game.
