Fortnite update 24.30 is now live, bringing more Star Wars crossover content. This time around, Epic is asking you to Find the Force by choosing to train either with the Jedi or the Sith. Depending on which master you select, you'll unlock different abilities to use while wielding a lightsaber in the game.

This isn't the first time Fortnite has crossed over with Star Wars, but this new update might be one of the game's more ambitious outings. You'll be able to choose between Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Darth Maul as your master, and you'll gain new abilities depending on who you pick.

No matter who your master is, you'll be able to sprint faster and double-jump while wielding a lightsaber. Obi-Wan will let you Force Push objects and players, while Anakin gives you the ability to pull objects and players towards you. Darth Maul, meanwhile, lets you throw objects from Fortnite's environment and throw them at other players. Which one will you choose?

Of course, you'll also get access to new quests that will let you unlock cosmetics. The free reward track includes a Clone Trooper outfit, but you can also purchase the premium pass to gain access to a Darth Maul outfit and a Coruscant Guard look. The Item Shop also plays host to new cosmetics to buy, including Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala outfits.

New sets of Find the Force quests will unlock periodically over the course of the Fortnite Star Wars event. The first set, "The Force Within", is available right now, with the second set launching on May 7th and the third on May 12th. Completing twelve quests in a single set gets you a Sith Holocron, and if you collect three Sith Holocrons, you'll get the Sith Infiltrator Glider as a reward.

Make sure to read the full Fortnite update 24.30 patch notes to see all of the exciting Star Wars content you can unlock as part of this event. As you'd expect from a Fortnite update, there are also new gameplay tweaks and balance changes to check out, as well as new Reality Augments and more. The game's Find the Force event runs from now until May 23rd.
