The Fortnite Clone Wars skins featuring Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano arrived on May 1, 2026 as part of Epic Games’ annual May the 4th Star Wars celebration. These animated-style outfits bring the beloved characters from the Star Wars: The Clone Wars series directly into Battle Royale.
You have until May 11, 2026 at 5:00 PM local time to add these cosmetics to your locker. After that date, they will leave the Item Shop and potentially not return for months or even years.
Our team has tracked every Star Wars collaboration in Fortnite since the original Stormtrooper skin released in [cy-1]. This guide gives you exact steps to secure both Clone Wars skins before they disappear.

How to Get Clone Wars Skins in Fortnite: Quick Steps
Both Clone Wars skins are available exclusively through the Fortnite Item Shop. You cannot earn them through challenges, the Battle Pass, or any free method.
- Launch Fortnite and navigate to the Item Shop from the main lobby.
- Look for the “Anakin Skywalker (Clone Wars)” or “Ahsoka Tano (Clone Wars)” outfits in the featured section.
- Select your desired skin and choose either individual purchase or the bundle option.
- Confirm your purchase using V-Bucks from your account balance.
- The skin and any included back bling will appear in your locker immediately.
The Anakin Skywalker skin costs 1,500 V-Bucks individually. The Ahsoka Tano skin also costs 1,500 V-Bucks on its own.
I recommend purchasing before May 11, 2026 at 5:00 PM local time. Epic typically removes limited-time collaboration cosmetics without warning after the stated deadline.
How to Get Anakin Skywalker Skin in Fortnite
The Anakin Skywalker (Clone Wars) outfit costs 1,500 V-Bucks and includes the Rotta the Huttlet back bling at no extra charge. This pricing puts it in the standard Legendary rarity tier for character outfits.
When you purchase this skin, you receive the complete Jedi Knight appearance from the animated series. The design features Anakin’s tan tunic, dark brown Jedi robes, and the distinctive Clone Wars art style that sets it apart from previous Star Wars skins in Fortnite.
What’s Included with Anakin Skywalker
Your purchase includes two items: the Anakin Skywalker (Clone Wars) outfit and the Rotta the Huttlet back bling. Rotta sits in a small pouch on your character’s back, complete with animated movements and reactions during gameplay.
The outfit works across all Fortnite game modes. This includes Battle Royale, Zero Build, Creative, and LEGO Fortnite.
In LEGO Fortnite, the skin transforms into a unique LEGO minifigure version of Anakin. The blocky aesthetic surprisingly matches the angular Clone Wars animation style quite well.
Step-by-Step Purchase Guide
Follow these exact steps to add Anakin to your collection:
- From the Fortnite lobby, press your platform’s Item Shop button (Triangle on PlayStation, Y on Xbox, click the shop icon on PC/Mobile).
- Scroll to the “Star Wars” or “Featured” section depending on current shop rotation.
- Find the Anakin Skywalker (Clone Wars) tile showing the animated character model.
- Press the select button to view purchase options.
- Choose “Purchase” for 1,500 V-Bucks or “View Bundle” if you want both skins.
- Confirm the transaction when prompted.
Your new skin appears in your locker under the “Outfits” tab immediately. Equip it before your next match to show off your Clone Wars collection.
How to Get Ahsoka Tano Skin in Fortnite
The Ahsoka Tano (Clone Wars) outfit is also available for 1,500 V-Bucks in the Item Shop. Like Anakin, this skin comes with an exclusive back bling called Ahsoka’s Clone Trooper.
Ahsoka appears in her Padawan apprentice appearance from the earlier seasons of The Clone Wars. Her orange skin tone, white facial markings, and montrals (head-tails) are faithfully recreated in Fortnite’s engine.
What’s Included with Ahsoka Tano
Purchasing the Ahsoka skin gives you the outfit plus the Ahsoka’s Clone Trooper back bling. The back bling features a customized clone trooper helmet painted with Ahsoka’s distinctive white markings.
The skin includes full LEGO Fortnite compatibility. Your blocky Ahsoka minifigure retains the character’s orange and white color scheme perfectly.
We tested both variants in-game and found the LEGO version particularly charming. The angular minifigure design actually complements Ahsoka’s geometric montrals from the animated series.
Step-by-Step Purchase Guide
Getting Ahsoka follows the same process as Anakin:
- Open the Item Shop from the main lobby screen.
- Locate the Ahsoka Tano (Clone Wars) outfit in the featured cosmetics section.
- Select the skin to open the purchase details page.
- Click “Purchase” for 1,500 V-Bucks or select “View Bundle” to see combined options.
- Confirm your V-Bucks transaction.
- Check your locker to equip the new outfit immediately.
The Ahsoka skin offers excellent value for fans of the character. Her appearances in The Mandalorian and her own Disney+ series have made her one of the most requested Star Wars skins in Fortnite history.
Other Clone Wars Cosmetics Available
Beyond the two main character skins, Epic released several additional Clone Wars-themed cosmetics during this collaboration. These items complement the main outfits and complete your Republic warrior look.
501st Trooper Outfit
The 501st Trooper outfit costs 1,200 V-Bucks and represents the clone battalion led by Anakin Skywalker during the Clone Wars. This rare-rarity skin features the distinctive blue markings of the 501st Legion on standard white clone armor.
I particularly like how this skin looks in squads. Multiple players wearing 501st armor creates an authentic “Fight for the Republic” atmosphere that matches the crossover’s marketing tagline.
Ahsoka’s Clone Trooper Outfit
This variant costs 1,200 V-Bucks and features the orange-marked armor worn by clone troopers under Ahsoka’s command. The paint scheme matches her Togruta coloration and represents her personal unit during the Siege of Mandalore arc.
The helmet design includes subtle feminine facial structure differences from the standard trooper model. This detail shows Epic’s attention to the source material from the animated series finale.
Clone Wars Pickaxe and Emotes
Epic also released several weapon and emote cosmetics. The Anakin’s lightsaber pickaxe costs 800 V-Bucks and features his blue Jedi weapon from the series.
Ahsoka’s dual white lightsabers are available as a pickaxe for 800 V-Bucks. These represent her weapons from the later Clone Wars seasons after she left the Jedi Order.
Players can also purchase the “Force Jump” emote for 300 V-Bucks. This traversal emote lets your character perform a Force-assisted leap that works while moving.
LEGO Fortnite Compatibility
Every Clone Wars cosmetic released in 2026 works in LEGO Fortnite. Your characters transform into authentic LEGO minifigure versions with proper printing and piece construction.
The lightsaber pickaxes become LEGO accessory items. Even the back blings convert appropriately, with Rotta the Huttlet becoming a printed tile accessory.
Clone Wars Bundle: Is It Worth Buying?
The Anakin Skywalker Bundle costs 2,300 V-Bucks and includes both character skins plus their back blings. Buying individually would cost 3,000 V-Bucks total, so the bundle saves you 700 V-Bucks.
That 700 V-Bucks difference equals approximately $5.50 in real currency value. If you want both skins, the bundle is clearly the smarter purchase.
Individual vs Bundle Comparison
Here’s the exact breakdown of your options:
- Anakin Skywalker only: 1,500 V-Bucks (includes Rotta back bling)
- Ahsoka Tano only: 1,500 V-Bucks (includes Clone Trooper back bling)
- Both individually: 3,000 V-Bucks total
- Anakin Skywalker Bundle: 2,300 V-Bucks (both skins + both back blings)
The bundle only offers savings if you want both main characters. There is no bundle option that includes the 501st Trooper or additional cosmetics.
Our Recommendation
Buy the Anakin Skywalker Bundle at 2,300 V-Bucks if you want both characters. The 700 V-Bucks you save could purchase an additional emote or put toward future Battle Pass content.
If you only care about one character, purchase individually. Neither skin is “better” than the other, it depends entirely on your Star Wars preferences.
I bought the bundle after testing both skins in Creative mode. Having the complete Clone Wars duo feels more satisfying than owning just one hero from the partnership.
How to Earn V-Bucks for Clone Wars Skins
Short on V-Bucks? You have several options to earn the 1,500 to 2,300 V-Bucks needed before the May 11 deadline. Some methods are free, others require prior investment.
Free V-Bucks Methods

Save the World mode provides daily login rewards including V-Bucks. Players who own this PvE mode from early access can earn approximately 50-100 V-Bucks daily through missions and logins.
Epic occasionally releases creator codes and promotional events with free V-Bucks. Check the official Fortnite social media channels for any active giveaways before May 11.

To get the Anakin Skywalker Bundle at 2,300 V-Bucks, the 2,800 V-Bucks package covers your purchase with 500 V-Bucks remaining for future content.
Fortnite Crew subscribers receive 1,000 V-Bucks monthly plus the current Battle Pass. This subscription costs $11.99 per month and offers good value if you play regularly.
