As reported by Bloomberg, however, Embracer Group today informed staff it will be closing…

Fortnite is hosting a Star Wars week, and introducing skins for Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa and Han Solo alongside a range of classic trilogy-themed acessories. Each of the three skins includes multiple designs based on costumes worn throughout the original trilogy – so, Luke in his white farmhand tunic but also his darker Return of the Jedi look, while Leia rocks her bounty hunter disguise as well as her iconic ear buns.
