There's also a Star Destroyer asset in the files.


And can get the skin for free if you buy Fallen Order from the Epic Games Store:

They sure as hell know how to do cross promotion well.

I wish TF2 and Dota 2 still got promo items. A lot of them sucked but a few of them were cool.

Does it show how long it will be available? My two little brothers really wants this but we don't have enough money to get 3000 vbucks (one for each) for the outfits.

Anyone find it strange that the crossover is with Fortnite and not... you know... EA's own battle royale Apex Legends?
It's still Disney, I'm sure they own the merchandising and such. It's promotion, but it's also Star Wars branding. Epic also probably paid for it like they likely did for the Thanos event, wanting people to buy the game on EGS.

No ? Fortnite is the much bigger game and this is supposed to promote Jedi Fallen Orders.
It's true that Fortnite is bigger, but Fallen Order and Apex are both Respawn games. The only reason why they might not is due to Apex wanting characters to remain recognizable.

That being said, some SW themed content, like a blaster L-star skin would still be cool.

I hope they do something with Apex too as I actually like Apex. Trickier fit with the character classes I suppose.

Definitely odd to have EA cross promoting one of their biggest game's biggest competitor.

I don't play Fortnite as often anymore, but I may have to get this. Would've been neat if they had The Mandalorian or a Boba Fett skin tho.

Still can't believe they're selling singular skins for $15 that leave the game wholly unchanged and will be dropped immediately for the next $15 skin.

To be fair, at least you can actually choose to buy it, and they're not tied behind a lootbox system.
Plus, you can just select costumes to be randomised now.

I know, and I agree with it. I'm just surprised that we haven't seen a cosmetics market correction after all of this time. Outright purchases are great, I just can't believe that people are reconciling with spending the cost of a small studio game to change the appearance of their character with no gameplay change whatsoever. I figured at some point the "value" of a skin would correct and not be 15 whole dollars. Guess I'm wrong.
