Summary

  • Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 3's map and POIs have been revealed ahead of its big Star Wars collaboration.
  • While there don't appear to be any biome changes, and the majority of the map is the same, four new Star Wars-themed POIs have been added to the map's corners.
  • These are called Resistance Base, Vader Samurai's Solitude, Outpost Enclave, and First Order Base, and have replaced the existing POIs in the corners of the map in Season 2.

Fortnite's big Star Wars collaboration is just around the corner, as Chapter 6, Season 3 is set to begin on May 2 next month. We know it's called Galactic Battle, will feature characters like Mace Windu and the living nightmare that is Darth Jar Jar, and Epic Games has been bigging up the season by calling it the most "expansive" Star Wars crossover the game has ever had.

Ahead of the new season, we have now finally been given a look at what the map and POIs will look like this time around, and if you were expecting big changes, you might be a little disappointed. First revealed by Fortnite insider and dataminer ShiinaBR on Twitter, we can see all the Star Wars-themed changes being made.

Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 3 POIs And Map Revealed

Unsurprisingly, not much has been altered, as that kind of landscaping usually happens at the beginning of a Chapter rather than in the middle, but we can see from a quick glance that the four corners of the map have undergone a Star Wars overhaul.

Four new POIs are now positioned in the map's corners, called Resistance Base, Vader Samurai's Solitude, Outpost Enclave, and First Order Base, which have replaced the POIs that were there in Season 2.

It doesn't look like there have been any biome changes this time around, and the rest of the game's POIs seem to have remained unchanged. That's a little disappointing, considering we've been running around these places for a good while now, but it's worth pointing out that Galactic Battle will be a much shorter season than normal. The Star Wars stuff should prove to be a decent enough novelty before Season 4 gets here.
