Fortnite celebrated May the Fourth in style this year. The Star Wars franchise got an entire mini-season dedicated to it for the year of 2025. The event featured an array of skins, which could be obtained in the Item Shop and by purchasing the Battle Pass and the LEGO Pass. However, that's not all. Players could also get the First Order Stormtrooper for free as part of a limited-time offer.

The offer was supposed to expire on August 31, 2025, but Epic Games decided to extend it by two months, giving players some extra time to claim it. This guide shows players how they can get the First Order Stormtrooper for free in Fortnite before the offer runs out once again and they have to purchase it with V-Bucks.

How to Get the Free First Order Stormtrooper Skin in Fortnite

To promote May the Fourth, Epic Games hosted the Galactic Battle season in Fortnite. Since then, the First Order Stormtrooper skin has been available for free. To get the free Star Wars skin in Fortnite, players need to connect their Epic Games account with a MyDisney account. It is that simple. If they don't have a MyDisney account, then all they need to do is create one and link it.

Once they've done this, the next time that they log into Fortnite, they will be greeted with the free First Order Stormtrooper skin. Here is how the First Order Stormtrooper skin and its LEGO variant look in Fortnite:

Here, they'll have to either log into their MyDisney account or create a new one, which only requires an email, a date of birth, and a password. Once they've connected the accounts, the skin will appear in their in-game locker the next time players log into Fortnite.

This remains a limited-time offer. Gamers have until October 31, 2025, to connect their Epic Games and MyDisney accounts in order to receive the First Order Stormtrooper skin for free in Fortnite. However, since skins are not exclusive in Fortnite, it may return to the Item Shop at a later date.
