Fortnite v22.30 delivers major additions including The Herald skin, Star Wars character integrations, and the return of iconic Lightsabers to enhance gameplay variety.

Server maintenance for v22.30 commenced on Tuesday, November 1, 2022, at 1AM PT / 4AM ET / 8AM GMT with approximately two hours of downtime. The update is now fully deployed and accessible across all platforms.
Major Content Additions
This season’s premium cosmetic known as The Herald (previously featured as an in-game boss encounter at Herald’s Sanctum location) becomes obtainable through dedicated questlines.
The cosmetic outfit was previously time-gated but becomes accessible immediately following the v22.30 update through progressive quest completion similar to previous seasonal unlock systems.
Following extensive speculation and promotional teasers, Star Wars legendary characters Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Princess Leia Organa have officially joined Fortnite’s character roster.
Their character skins and complementary cosmetic accessories are available for purchase in the Item Shop immediately following the update deployment completion.
v22.30 introduces the Chrome Punk Goals quest series focused on account level progression, representing a substantial time investment for completion due to leveling requirements.
Completion rewards include the exclusive Chrome Punk outfit, Graveyard Rave loading screen visual, and Chromeseed back bling accessory for comprehensive cosmetic customization.
Event Changes and Weapon Updates
To commemorate Luke Skywalker’s debut, Fortnite launches ‘Skywalker Week’ running through November 8, 2022, featuring numerous franchise-themed surprises and exclusive content.
Multiple weapons have been temporarily unvaulted including Lightsabers, E-11 Blaster Rifles, Pulse Rifles, and Junk Rifts exclusively during the event timeframe. Rumors suggest Darth Vader may have reappeared on the island map.
