Today (26th September), the servers went down for maintenance while another patch (26.20) was released.

So what's changed now things are up and running again?

We'll share all the details on the 26.20 Fortnite update down below, and list all the patch notes. If you're a Star Wars fan, we think you might like what's coming.

What’s change in the Fortnite update today (26th September)?

In what seems to be a celebration of the series on Disney Plus, the biggest selling point of the 26.10 patch is an Ahsoka Tano skin. There are also eight cosmetics available for the skin, including the iconic staff.

There are a few Star Wars-themed tasks you'll need to complete before you can wear the skin, and they're all included in the patch, too.

And, of course, you'll obtain Force powers and a lightsaber as you complete the tasks. It wouldn't be a Star Wars event without them.
