Han Solo's favorite fuzzball comes to Fortnite thanks to the newest Fortnite x Star Wars event, and with a bout of growls and chuckles, Chewbacca will certainly leave an impression when claiming a Victory Royale, and perhaps a few rogue hairs from all the shedding. Chewbacca is an impressive outfit, and the boastful strength to pull people's arms out of their sockets when they lose might have some people relating to Chewie when they fail to win a round of Battle Royale.

Fortnite: All Star Wars Skins

Star Wars x Fortnite has seen many iconic characters from the galaxy far, far away come to the famous Battle Royale.

Chewbacca isn't like most collab skins, and that's not just because he's a walking carpet from Kashyyyk. Players will need to go a different route to claim Chewbacca in Fortnite which doesn't involve the Item Shop but still involves time and V-Bucks.

Purchase The Premium Reward Track LEGO Pass (1,400 V-Bucks)

If players want to get Chewbacca in Fortnite, then they are going to need to purchase the Premium Reward Track for the new LEGO Pass. This can be accessed from the Item Shop towards the bottom of the page under the Passes and Fortnite Crew tab, where players can find Chewbacca in the LEGO Pass for 1,400 V-Bucks. Alternatively, players can select the LEGO Fortnite mode and head to the LEGO Pass screen, where they will be prompted to upgrade to the Premium Reward Track. Whilst the cost of 1,400 V-Bucks might seem like a lot for an event pass, players will have access to tons of Star Wars-related builds and decorations for LEGO Fortnite.

Here is the list of Premium Rewards in the LEGO Pass:

Chewbacca (Outfit)
Chewbacca (LEGO Style)
Dusty Durr Burger (Build)
Mos Eisley Cantina (Build)
Mos Eisley Large Garage (Build)
Tatooine Vaporators (Decor Bundle)
Mos Eisley Tower (Build)
Tatooine Dining (Decor Bundle)
Mos Eisley Emporium (Build)
Tatooine Kitchenette (Decor Bundle)
Mos Eisley Garage (Build)
Tatooine Hope (Decor Bundle)
Mos Eisley Homestead (Build)

The Rebel Adventure LEGO Pass is available through July 23, 2024, giving players 80 days from May 3 to purchase Chewbacca and complete the Premium Reward Pass. By purchasing this Pass, players will instantly claim Chewbacca and his LEGO style for their locker. It's also worth noting that the Premium Reward Track states that "Premium Reward Track items may be available in the Item Shop at a later date.", but it can never be predicted if or when that will happen.

Chewbacca Outfit

The co-pilot of the Millenium Falcon and the best friend to Han Solo, Chewbacca makes a triumphant debut in Fortnite, joining other Original Trilogy legends like Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, and of course, Han Solo himself. The outfit looks great, blending the style of Fortnite's art with that of the detail and realism of Star Wars. Chewbacca's detail in his fur and eyes are incredible, as is his leather bandoiler.

With the purchase of this outfit, players will also claim the LEGO style, which is just as adorable, just less hairy and more plastic. As a nice bonus, players will receive the Wookiee War Cry, a built-in emote that will have Chewbacca punch his fists in the air with his iconic growl for all to hear. With an outfit, LEGO style, and built-in emote, Chewbacca doesn't come with anything else.
