Epic Games has released the Fortnite update 26.20 patch notes, detailing everything new in the latest update including
The Fortnite update 26.20 patch notes are finally here following downtime earlier today and are headlined by Star Wars' Ahsoka Tano finally arriving in-game as this season's secret skin. Alongside the Ahsoka skin there's eight cosmetics themed around the character, including her staff. Of course, as Ahsoka is the secret skin for the Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 Battle Pass, a number of Ahsoka-themed missions have been added with this update that you'll need to complete in order to unlock the skin.
Not only is Ahsoka joining the game, but Force powers are making their return after showing up earlier this year with the Find the Force event. Ahsoka holograms will appear on the island to teach you Force Push alongside giving you the Jedi Training lightsaber.
If you're on PS5 and haven't been able to download the update yet, this issue should now be fixed according to a tweet from the @FortniteStatus Twitter account.
Fortnite update 26.20 patch notes
The following is the full list of patch notes as posted by Epic Games on the official Fortnite website:
Why Star Wars Jedi: Survivor's six week delay is a good thing
A New Day, a New Beginning: gain Force abilities
When you encounter a hologram of Ahsoka Tano on the Island, speak to her and accept her offer to train you. You’ll then enter a rift, and exit with a Jedi Training Lightsaber and knowledge of Force abilities! These Force abilities can only be used if you went through Ahsoka’s training and are actively wielding a Jedi Training Lightsaber. Your knowledge of these abilities will last until the end of the match.
Force Abilities from Ahsoka Tano
Use the Force to sprint faster and double jump.
Use the Force to push objects and players away.
The Ahsoka Tano holograms, Jedi Training Lightsaber, and Force abilities will remain in Battle Royale until v26.30.
