Introducing, Star Wars: Deadeye Duels, an 8v8 competitive Star Wars game coming to Fortnite featuring long-ranged combat, classes and a progression system, releasing on May 1st!

In Star Wars: Deadeye Duels, you’ll be fighting on Tatooine in a big pit with a small town occupied by the Rebellion, featuring a multi-story building, a Razor Crest and many buildings. Across the gorge lies an Imperial base. The Imperial base features AT-STs, ITTs, a Lambda shuttle and more.

Classes

In Star Wars: Deadeye Duels there are 3 playable classes:

• Sniper Rifle
• Sniper Blaster
• Bowcaster

Sniper Rifle

The Sniper Rifle class wields the IQA-11 sniper rifle

Sniper Blaster

The Sniper Blaster class wields the A280-CFE blaster rifle

Bowcaster

Progression

The progression system in Star Wars: Deadeye Duels is still in development. In its current state it works as follows:

• Level 1 – Common weapons – 0 kills
• Level 2 – Uncommon weapons – 100 kills
• Level 3 – Rare weapons – 250 kills
• Level 4 – Epic weapons – 500 kills
• Level 5 – Legendary weapons – 1000 kills

I’m looking to add consumables to the progression system as well to make the game more re-playable. I’m still working on getting things to work smoothly, so keep your eyes out for another update!
