Epic Games has announced that Fortnite players will get to preview Tales of the Empire, the newest animated Star Wars anthology, before anyone else. Two full episodes will be shown in-game starting May 2, giving fans a rare opportunity to dive into new galactic stories ahead of their Disney+ debut.

Fortnite Unlocks Exclusive Star Wars Episodes Days Before DisneyImage: x.comA specially designed map, dubbed Star Wars: Co-View Island, will be the venue for the premiere. Players can access it using code 2124-6713-8076 beginning at 5 PM Moscow time. Connecting your Epic and MyDisney accounts not only allows viewing but also unlocks themed in-game items, such as an Asajj Ventress splash screen and armor from the First Order.

The series explores lesser-known characters and fringe tales from the Star Wars galaxy. The spotlight here is on Ventress, a former Sith assassin who’s long been a fan-favorite for her complex backstory. This release follows the format of past titles like Tales of the Jedi.

The map remains available until May 11, and the launch aligns with Fortnite’s new event, Galactic Battle, which includes new missions tied to the Empire and Emperor Palpatine.
