Fortnite Star Wars Day May the 4th challenges and rewards explained

Starting the 3rd of May, you can complete special May the 4th challenges in Fortnite to get XP. If five of the six special quests are completed before the end of the Fortnite Star Wars Day celebrations, you will get the Empire Banner.

Each Star Wars May the 4th quest rewards 30k XP when completed, for a total of 180,000 XP for completing them all. Here are the all May the 4th Star Wars quests:

Land at a Stormtrooper Checkpoint, then place top 25 (1)
Complete a bounty from a Stormtrooper (1)
Block hits using a Lightsaber (10)
Damage opponents within 30 meters using the E-11 Blaster Rifle (1,000)
Drive a vehicle from Chonker’s Speedway or Logjam Lumberyard to a Stormtrooper Checkpoint (1)
Survive storm phases while carrying a Lightsaber (5)

You will need to find a Lightsaber in order to complete a few of these quests. Lightsabers are included in the Star Wars Day update until the event ends.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 is here! It brings a free Lego Insider skin and redemption codes with it, along with a new Victory Umbrella. We've also got pages on new features like Medallions, Weapon Mods, and how to complete a Train Heist.
