How To Get Free Star Wars Twitch Drop Items In Fortnite

Fortnite Galactic Battle has been an absolute blast, taking players on a mini Star Wars adventure packed with exciting updates each passing week. From wielding Lightsabers and a variety of Star Wars Blasters to soaring through the skies with the Mandalorian Jetpack, players have had plenty of epic, action-packed moments this season that are both fun and rewarding.

Speaking of rewards, Fortnite players can earn a range of unique items completely for free. While many of these rewards are tied to Ranked Quests and other seasonal events, Twitch users have a special opportunity to claim exclusive items for free—but only for a limited time. Here’s how players can get their hands on the Galactic Battle Twitch Drop Items in Fortnite.

How To Claim Free Galactic Battle Twitch Drop Items In Fortnite

A roster of free Twitch Drop items will be available for Fortnite players starting May 29, just by tuning into their favorite Twitch streamers. However, unlike previous Twitch Drops, viewers will need to interact with the stream to earn rewards. To get started, head to any stream within the Fortnite category on Twitch that has the “Galactic Battle” Twitch Extension enabled.

Once there, users will see a widget that allows them to participate by clicking “Grant Access”. Doing so will reward them with the Darth Jar Jar Emoticon completely for free. While watching the stream, players must also be on the lookout for various items that will appear on-screen at random intervals.

Players will need to collect 12 total unique items in the stream to earn 5 Star Wars-themed Sprays. The items themselves are simply collected by clicking on them as they appear, and all collected items can be tracked via the Fortnite Extension, brought up by clicking the Fortnite icon on the left side of the screen.

During the stream, creators can choose to trigger a Takeover, which disables the ability to collect and track items. During this time, users can spam the DarthJarJar Emote in the Twitch channel's chat to beat the Takeover. Once it's completed, players can go back to collecting items as usual.

That’s not all, as there’s one more reward: the Galactic War Loading Screen. This will be unlocked for the entire community of that stream once a shared milestone of items claimed is reached. Once that goal has been reached, anyone who has claimed at least one reward (excluding the Darth Jar Jar Emoticon) will automatically receive the Galactic Battle Loading Screen in-game.

Upon claiming any reward, whether it be a Spray or the Darth Jar Jar Emoticon, players should receive said reward in Fortnite next time they log in. However, this can take up to 30 days in some circumstances. The Galactic Battle Twitch Drop items are also only available to claim for a limited time until June 7, and may return to the Item Shop at a later date.
