May is all about Star Wars in Fortnite, with the Epic Games collab continuing with the beloved franchise, and a full month of content is arriving, as outlined in an official roadmap.
Fortnite‘s close ties with Disney are well documented, and there is a long history of Star Wars collabs in the game, and while there may not be as many major headlines as previous years, which have seen major takeovers, there’s still plenty to dig your teeth into.
If you don’t want to miss a single piece of the content that Fortnite has in May for Star Wars, Insider Gaming has all the details.
Complete Fortnite x Star Wars May 2026 Roadmap

Is There a Fortnite x Star Wars Battle Royale Collab?
No, there is no official direct Fortnite collab with Star Wars in Battle Royale terms, unlike previous years, with the majority of content arriving outside of those modes.
Last year, a mini-season themed around Star Wars took over the Battle Royale scene, with some POIs remaining throughout the chapter, but that’s not the case this year.
The limited scope of Battle Royale involvement merely extends to skins and cosmetics released in the item shop, including Clone Wars items and the Mandalorian Pen & Ink set, which can be used in Battle Royale modes.
However, don’t expect to see things like official Star Wars weapons, including Lightsabers, within the Battle Royale modes themselves.
