Lucasfilm Exec Says Fortnite is the Future of Star Wars Storytelling
Starting May 1, developers will be able to create Star Wars-inspired islands in Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN) and Fortnite Creative using curated assets and tools from Epic's largest IP toolset to date.
James Waugh, Senior Vice President of Franchise Story and Creative Strategy at Lucasfilm, says that putting first-looks at big-screen Star Wars properties in Fortnite is a no-brainer.
New Islands
- Star Wars: Galactic Siege
- Star Wars: Droid Tycoon
- Star Wars: Escape Vader
Waugh says that the idea of survival horror games, mixing with Darth Vader, one of the scariest great characters to ever come out of cinema, is perfect.
