Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3, in all likelihood, will feature several collaborations with franchises such as Star Wars, Family Guy, and Indiana Jones. According to leakers, the crossovers with Indiana Jones and Family Guy seem to be restricted to cosmetics, but Star Wars fans are in for a treat. Darth Vader may be present on the map as a boss, with his castle on the island as a POI.


Fortnite players have Darth Vader's castle to look forward to in Chapter 3 Season 3

Marvel is the only franchise to have an entire Fortnite season dedicated to its lore and characters. Conversely, DC and Star Wars have only had comics, live events, and cosmetics. Undoubtedly, fans of these franchises want a full season dedicated to their favorite superheroes as well.

Donald Mustard, the Creative Director at Epic Games, has teased a Darth Vader skin repeatedly. Inasmuch, Tabor Hill has confirmed that he will appear as a boss next season.

Darth Vader's castle could be located in the volcanic world of Mustafar, replacing the Daily Bugle POI, which is based on the Peter Parker’s office from the Spider Man franchise. However, some fans believe that the POIs will co-exist, as Marvel's Zero War comics will release at the same time.

To make things even better, Epic Games could add Imperial Storm Troopers as AI guards, whose sole purpose would be to trouble loopers visiting Darth Vader's castle.


Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3 could contain more than Darth Vader

The recent Star Wars leaks aren't just about Darth Vader, but several other characters as well. For instance, fans claim that Donald Mustard recently posted an image of Chewbacca on Twitter, alongside a C3PO reference. Also, Lightsabers were recently added back to the files.

Hence, loopers assume that Chapter 3 Season 3 will have a Star Wars theme. If this leak becomes official, loopers can expect a multitude of Star Wars-based content, including new weapons, skins, POIs and additional features.

The first two seasons of Chapter 3 have heavily revolved around the game’s lore. Characters like The Foundation, The Origin, The Sisters, and Dr. Slone have played a major role in the storyline, so Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3 could be the ideal time to mix things up with a crossover.


Note: There has been no official announcement from Epic Games regarding the same. Thus, readers should take this information with a pinch of salt.
