Where is Chewbacca in Fortnite?
The Chewbacca NPC is located at the new Imperial Roadblocks placed around the map. There are several of them, but Chewbacca will only appear at one at a time in every Battle Royale match. Keep an eye out for the blue smoke coming out of this sky. That smoke tells you where to find the Wookiee.
He's a captive of the imperial forces, so you'll have to rescue him. Once you find the right Imperial Roadblock with the Wookiee inside, you'll have to take out the Stormtroopers who are holding him. If you rescue Chewbacca, you'll get two advantages.
How To Recruit Chewbacca?
If you want to make Chewbacca your ally, you’ll need to land at his Imperial site, where he’s based, and take out the stormtroopers there. It’s always best if there are two of them, otherwise Chewbacca will fight them both.
Once they’re both dead, Chewbacca rumbles and drops a Wookiee bowcaster, then pledges himself to the player who killed the stormtroopers. He’s your buddy now, and you didn’t need any gold to get him. Chewbacca can’t be resurrected or rebooted if he’s killed, but you can get rid of him if you recruit another NPC around the map.
How To Get Chewbacca in Fortnite?
If you want to get Chewbacca, you’ll need to buy Premium Reward Track in your new LEGO Pass in order to get him. You’ll find it in the Item Shop at the bottom of this page, under Passes, under the Crew tab. Alternatively, if you’re playing as Chewbacca on the LEGO Pass, you can get him in the LEGO mode for 1, 400 V-Buck.
Once you’re in the LEGO mode and you’ve selected the LEGO Pass, head to the “LEGO Pass” screen, where you’ll be asked to upgrade to “Premium Reward Track.” If you’re wondering how much V-Buck Chewbacca costs in LEGO, the answer is “1,400”. That’s a lot of V-Buck, but that’s nothing compared to all the Star Wars-themed builds and decorations you’ll have access to in LEGO!

Chewbacca Fortnite Skin
The outfit looks amazing, combining the style of the Fortnite art with the level of detail and realism you’d expect from Star Wars. The detail in Chewbacca’s fur and eyes is jaw-dropping, as is the leather bandolier that adorns it.
Chewbacca is one of the most beloved characters in the original trilogy, and it’s no surprise that he’s making a triumphant entrance into Fortnite. He’ll be teaming up with Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa to take on the game’s other Original Trilogy heroes, including Han Solo.
When you buy this Chewbacca outfit, you’ll also get the LEGO style. It’s just as cute as the real thing, but less furry and more plasticky. As an added bonus, you can also get the built-in Chewbacca War Cry, where Chewbacca will punch his fists up in the air and let out his signature growl for everyone to hear.
Where is Chewbacca From?
Chewbacca is a large, furry, and highly intelligent species native to the fictional planet of Kashyyyk. Its unique ecosystem was first described in The Wookiees Storybook. It was discovered that Kashyyyk is a heavily forested planet, with vast plains and islands ideal for large, sprawling battles.
