Fortnite: Can You Still Get Darth Vader?

Darth Vader came to Fortnite a long time ago from a galaxy far, far away, but how could players get their hands on the legendary Star Wars Sith Lord?

Fortnite: Can You Still Get Darth Vader?

A once heroic Jedi Knight and the Chosen One, Anakin Skywalker fell and became Darth Vader, seduced by the dark side of the Force, and forever encased in a machine prison after his defeat on Mustafar. Taking this anger from Star Wars into Fortnite, Darth Vader reigns supreme as one of the most iconic villains of all time, and players can enjoy making him do silly dances and emotes, or simply look cool in search of a Victory Royale.

Fortnite x Star Wars has seen many collabs and characters join the fight, but none are as iconic as Darth Vader. This dark lord of the Sith is a highly sought-after skin, and truly places among the best Star Wars skins in Fortnite for the attention to detail and iconic imagery, but can new players even get their hands on him?

When Was Darth Vader Available In Fortnite?

Fortnite: Can You Still Get Darth Vader?

Sadly, Darth Vader is no longer available to Fortnite players, as he was an exclusive Page 10 reward for the Chapter 3 Season 3 Battle Pass between June 5, 2022, and September 17, 2022. Players must have purchased the Chapter 3 Season 3 Battle Pass during this time and unlocked Darth Vader for 9 Battle Stars on Page 10. Otherwise, there is no other way to claim Darth Vader in 2024. Since Vader is a Battle Pass exclusive skin, it's extremely unlikely he will ever appear again, even with a variant in the Item Shop. This is due to Epic Games and Fortnite's stance on Battle Pass exclusivity, but as a collab skin, things may be different in the future. Players cannot acquire Darth Vader through any other means, but they can still claim Anakin Skywalker, the Jedi Knight that would become Darth Vader, as he is usually available in the Item Shop alongside other Star Wars skins.

Darth Vader came with a few goodies in his debut in Fortnite, including his outfit, perfectly designed as if scanned straight from the movies, where every button was correct, and even his lightsaber was perfected.

Here's a look at Darth Vader's cosmetics that could be equipped as part of his set:

  • Darth Vader (outfit)
  • Viper Probe Droid (back bling)
  • Sigil of the Empire (pickaxe)
  • Lambda-Class Shuttle (glider)
  • The Squadron (contrail)
  • Imperial March (emote) — An emote that actually played Darth Vader's iconic Imperial March theme from John Williams! If players used this emote with Darth Vader, he would also breathe as he walks during the traversal animation.
