Epic Games has exciting news for fans of both Avatar: The Last Airbender and Star Wars, announcing that these popular franchises will be included in Fortnite’s Unreal Editor in 2026. This addition allows players to create personalized worlds and experiences based on these beloved series. The announcement comes on the heels of Fortnite’s recent Galactic Battle mini-season, which featured its largest crossover event with Star Wars, including an AI version of Darth Vader that players can interact with during matches. As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance player engagement, Epic Games is introducing new AI tools for creators to help them bring characters and settings to life within the Unreal Editor.
This initiative aims to capitalize on the success of previous collaborations, as seen with the new partnership with Squid Game for Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3, which has generated significant interest among players. In a recent Twitter update, Epic Games confirmed the return of Avatar: The Last Airbender for a new collaboration. This time, however, the experience will differ from its first iteration. Creators will gain access to tools that will empower them to design their own unique Avatar experiences, reflecting the strong demand for such content.
While a specific release date was not provided, players can anticipate these new features by 2026. While the prospects for Fortnite’s future appear promising, the community has raised concerns about the game’s recent performance. Reports indicate that Fortnite experienced its lowest player count in two years in May, potentially indicating waning interest in the Galactic Battle mini-season. As Epic Games prepares for Chapter 6 Season 3, they aim to rejuvenate the player base and revive enthusiasm for the game.
Despite current challenges, many fans remain hopeful about what lies ahead for Fortnite.
