Fortnite continues its tradition of Star Wars crossovers, and this season players have a chance to claim the First Order Stormtrooper skin at no cost. Unlike most skins that require V-Bucks or a Battle Pass unlock, this one comes from a special promotion tied to Disney accounts. Here’s everything you need to know to secure it before the offer ends.
The First Order Stormtrooper outfit is part of Fortnite’s Galactic Battle season, a Star Wars–themed event that kicked off during May the Fourth celebrations. With Star Wars quests, themed items, and watch parties inside Fortnite, the Stormtrooper skin fits right in. It’s also bundled with a LEGO variant, so players can use it across both Battle Royale and LEGO Fortnite.
Deadline to Claim the Skin
Originally scheduled to end on August 31, 2025, Epic Games extended the promotion, giving players extra time. The new deadline is October 31, 2025. After that, the skin may rotate into the Item Shop, but you’ll need V-Bucks to purchase it.
How to Unlock the Stormtrooper Skin for Free
The process is simple: link your Epic Games account to a MyDisney account. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

The First Order Stormtrooper skin is a limited-time reward that requires no grinding or V-Bucks, only a quick account link. Since the offer ends on October 31, 2025, it’s best to connect your accounts as soon as possible. Even if you miss the deadline, Fortnite’s history of rotating skins means it could return to the shop later — but this may be your only chance to get it for free.
