First Look at Samurai Darth Vader and Storm Trooper Skins Leaked for Fortnite

Exciting news is on the horizon for Fortnite fans as new **Samurai Darth Vader** and **Samurai Storm Trooper** skins are reportedly set to debut in Chapter 6 Season 1. Recent leaks have provided insight into these highly anticipated outfits, igniting discussions among the gaming community.

The latest collaboration with the Star Wars franchise occurred in May during the celebrations for Star Wars Day, which introduced players to new skins including Chewbacca, Dagobah Luke, and Lando Calrissian, among others.

Unveiling the Samurai Darth Vader Skin

Speculation around a Samurai Darth Vader skin began with an initial leak earlier this month, but a more substantial advertisement surfaced on December 22, showcasing this iconic villain adorned in samurai-style armor.

This design resonates deeply with the game’s current theme, as Vader’s original armor was inspired by traditional samurai gear. The leak hints at an outfit that not only aligns with the season’s Japanese aesthetic but also evokes the sleekness of the **Ninja Knight Batman skin** released recently.

Though Epic Games has yet to formally announce the Samurai Darth Vader skin, prominent leaker Blortzen has shared that it could include the following cosmetics:

Back Bling
Pickaxe

Potential For the Return of Force Abilities

In promotional images, Vader wields a striking red Samurai blade that mirrors his famed Lightsaber while appearing to utilize the Force. This raises the possibility that Force abilities could make a comeback in Fortnite, especially considering their popularity in previous seasons. The introduction of unique items like the **Typhoon Blade** hints that players may receive more than just skins with this collaboration.

It’s noteworthy to consider previous collaborations, which typically limited new content to cosmetics such as weapon Back Bling and Pickaxes—examples include skins inspired by Batman and Karuta Harley Quinn, which enjoyed similar treatments this season. Although speculation regarding an Emote is rife, Vader utilizing the Force in promotional content might just introduce a clever new Emote.

Introducing the Samurai Storm Trooper Skin

In addition to the Samurai Darth Vader, renowned leaker ShiinaBR revealed on X that a new **Samurai Storm Trooper** skin will also feature in this season’s lineup. Echoing the theme of ancient Japanese warriors, this Storm Trooper variant sport a stylish all-white armor design.
