Viewing begins May 2 at 10 AM ET on the Star Wars Watch Party island featuring Asajj Ventress - two days before Disney+ subscribers get access. Link your Epic Games and Disney accounts for a free First Order Stormtrooper outfit, with Epic hinting at additional perks coming soon.

"This collaboration represents the future of interactive entertainment," stated Epic Games President Adam Sussman. "We're reinventing immersive storytelling with one of the world's most beloved franchises - expect much more ahead."

The viewing window closes May 11 when the Watch Party island expires. The location also features a lightsaber Battle Arena mode. Complete both episodes to unlock an Asajj Ventress loading screen.

The six-episode Clone Wars-style series follows Ventress and bounty hunter Cad Bane. Disney's description hints at redemption arcs and confrontations with past demons for both characters.

Disney's partnership with Epic extends beyond this season, following its $1.5 billion investment in March 2024. This long-term deal promises more Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars content, including upcoming Darth Jar Jar and Emperor Palpatine skins.

Fortnite maintains its industry dominance through innovative collaborations. Recent events like the Sabrina Carpenter crossover demonstrate the game's cultural relevance across entertainment mediums.
