"WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET STAR WARS?" This has been the #1 question I’ve received from Fortnite developers since we launched our IP program in UEFN at GDC 2024. From every conversation, one thing was clear: everyone has a Star Wars story they want to tell. Well... it’s officially here! As of yesterday, developers have access to a massive Star Wars toolkit in UEFN! It combines years of iconic functionality from Battle Royale with a staggering amount of brand-new assets and functionality. 🔥 Epic Scale: Full biomes (Hoth, Tatooine, Nevarro), over 25 weapons, and iconic vehicles—including the N1 Starfighter (my personal favorite), X-wings, and TIE fighters. 💥 Deep Customization: A new Hero system, custom lightsaber building, and standalone Force powers via Scene Graph and Verse. Star Wars is the IP nearest and dearest to my heart; it’s the lore that made it clear I would be a "nerd for life". This moment is beyond words. A huge thank you to the leaders at Epic who drove this from start to finish. Special thanks to our partners at Disney and Lucasfilm for having such a deep ethos to unlock a wide creative palette and being so focused on the developer experience!! I cannot wait for see what this community publishes for the world to play! 🌌✨

@riftinrobby It’s quite the bummer not to get to see you all next week. I’m sure it won’t be postponed for long!

So incredibly disappointed and heartbroken that the #Oscars and AMPAS chose not to include my father, David Keighley, and his immeasurable contributions to IMAX and cinema in the In Memoriam segment in the broadcast. I will never forget.

Another GDC in the books. It’s never easy to leave all my fellow CAs but it is great to come back refreshed for getting back to making games again!

Yeah I echo Andre’s sentiments, and on the creative side we are excited to share with you what the team has been cooking up for Season 2. There’s not long left now, and we have more surprises on the way. Thank you for sticking with us as we extended Season 1 to give it that extra time in the oven.

I appreciate you sharing, I also know how hard everyone is working behind the scenes, I know a lot goes into the game and it takes time. For me personally, just my own experience lately, it seems to me that the collabs and item shop cosmetics have been the most important factor in promoting the game and it just doesn’t feel right. I miss the hype of frequent content drops and being able to experience Fortnite content like we used to. I’m excited for the future, but also I’ve had my hopes set high for a lot of things that ultimately didn’t happen or was prolonged to the point that it wasn’t as exciting when it was released. I love the game, I love the community and I love making content, but as a content creator, it’s hard when changes you anticipate to happen, are delayed or it doesn’t amount to much. I am by no means trying to come across as disrespectful or upset, that’s not the case. I appreciate you all and I appreciate everything you all are doing. I just want to see the game be hugely successful in the near future and see players enjoying the experience to the fullest and myself as well. Fortnite has been my favorite game for 8 years now, I want nothing but the best for it!

I think the fact that folks think Sean McDermott should be on the hot seat after a 5 turnover game (4 by his top-tier QB) is utterly ridiculous. Havethe take you’d like about how the refs (poorly) called the last plays but the turnovers on the field put them in a place to lose.
