All my dreams have come true with the ability to swing a lightsaber in the new Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 update. With the Star Wars theme taking center stage, you no longer need to battle bosses or NPCs to get your hands on these iconic weapons. In this guide, we’ll walk you through all the lightsaber locations in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 and how to obtain them.
Where to Find All Lightsabers in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3
Finding a lightsaber in Fortnite’s latest Star Wars-themed season is relatively easy. However, different variants can be found across various locations on the Chapter 6 Season 3 map. To spot them, open your map and look for a blue or red sword icon, which marks the locations of Rey and Emperor Palpatine. Additionally, you can find a lightsaber from Darth Vader Samurai at Vader Samurai’s Solitude.
How to Obtain a Lightsaber in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3
To obtain a lightsaber, simply head to any of the locations marked by the icons mentioned earlier. Alternatively, you can defeat Darth Vader Samurai to earn one. Once you find Rey and Emperor Palpatine or defeat the Vader boss, you’ll be prompted to choose your alliance between the Jedi or Sith.
After confirming your choice, you’ll step through a portal, and when you emerge, you’ll be armed with a lightsaber. If you’d rather skip the process, you can always eliminate an enemy with a lightsaber and take it for yourself.
