The Star Wars universe is taking over Fortnite once again as Disney looks to promote the premiere of Obi-Wan's brand-new TV show. The Jedi Master will join the likes of Rey, Kylo Ren, Finn, The Mandalorian, and many more characters from a galaxy far, far away in the battle royale.
To celebrate the occasion, Epic Games has announced the Obi-Wan Kenobi Cup, a Duos event giving players the ability to earn the Star Wars skin alongside other cosmetics for free before it officially releases in the in-game Fortnite store.
So without further ado, let's walk you through everything you need to know about the Obi-Wan Kenobi Fortnite Cup, including the schedule, format, scoring, prizes, and more.
