The fight is on to save the Fortnite island
The Galactic Battle V: Death Star Sabotage live event will take place on June 7 at 2pm ET. As always, it’s recommended that you log into Fortnite early in an attempt to secure your spot. Death Star Sabotage will feature in the top row of the Discover page from 12pm ET on June 7, 2025. Invite your friends and experience the event together, with the mode supporting parties of up to four players.
Fortnite’s return to Apple devices in the United States and the mobile Epic Games Store in the European Union means that the live event can be played on the go.
Once the in-game event countdown hits zero, the event will begin. Emperor Palpatine has prepared the Death Star’s superlaser so it will completely destroy the island. It’s thought that players will have to stop Emperor Palpatine in his tracks to save the battle royale.
While we wait for the live event to kick off, there’s a whole host of Star Wars content still to play through. The May 29 update brought the Star Destroyer Bombardment to the island in battle royale and zero build matches. It allows one player or squad to pilot the capital ship and rain terror down from above.
