Star Wars enthusiasts eager to dive into the first episodes of Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld will need to venture into Fortnite to catch the series premiere before it hits Disney+. Epic Games has announced an exciting expansion of its Star Wars content, revealing that the first two episodes of the upcoming animated series will debut exclusively within Fortnite. This move is part of their strategy to enhance the Star Wars experience during the upcoming Galactic Battle season, which is packed with themed rewards and content.
Starting at 10 a.m. ET on May 2, fans can watch the premiere of Tales of the Underworld featuring Asajj Ventress on the Star Wars Watch Party island—two days ahead of its Disney+ release. Epic Games encourages players to link their Epic Games and MyDisney accounts, promising a First Order Stormtrooper outfit as a reward, with hints of additional future benefits. “Disney and Epic are pioneering the future of social entertainment together, and this expansive Star Wars collaboration offers a glimpse into the type of interactive experiences we envision,” said Epic Games President Adam Sussman. “We are reimagining what’s possible with immersive storytelling in Fortnite with one of the world’s most beloved franchises - stay tuned for a lot more to come.”
The Star Wars Watch Party island will be available until May 11, giving fans ample time to view both episodes. The island also includes a Battle Arena where players can engage in lightsaber combat against waves of enemies. Those who watch both episodes will be rewarded with an Asajj Ventress loading screen.

Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld is a six-episode series animated in the style of The Clone Wars, focusing on the adventures of Asajj Ventress and Cad Bane. The official description teases Ventress's journey towards a new life and alliance, while Bane confronts his past.
Disney's collaboration with Fortnite extends beyond the Galactic Battle season. In March 2024, Disney acquired a $1.5 billion stake in Epic, cementing a long-term partnership that promises more joint projects and the integration of additional Star Wars, Marvel, and Pixar outfits into the popular battle royale game. Exciting highlights for the next season include Darth Jar Jar and Emperor Palpatine.
Since its launch in 2017, Fortnite has continued to dominate the gaming space. Recent collaborations, such as the one with Sabrina Carpenter, have kept the game fresh and engaging, encouraging players to swap their pickaxes for dancing shoes.
