Ashsoka heeft op dit moment een eigen Star Wars live action serie op Disney+.

Fortnite is een free-to-play Battle Royale game speelbaar op de PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Series X en Xbox Series S.
Fortnite Chapter Four, season four map changes
A new Fortnite season means map changes—and season four is no different. There are three new POIs this season, all owned by Kado Thorne. They are filled with valuable items, but be warned, because they’re also defended by cameras, laser grids, and guards.
The first new POI is Relentless Retreat, a modern home with palm trees and an outdoor swimming pool.
Sanguine Suites is a sprawling hotel, with plenty of rooms for you to enter and explore. Found right at the edge of the map, landing here could give you a chance to loot by yourself if it isn’t directly under the path of the Battle Bus.
Finally, Eclipsed Estate is another modern building, complete with a giant eclipse sigil carved out of stone.
Thorne has also taken over Rumble Ruins, the Slap Juice factory, and a tower in MEGA City, which all have guards defending them.
Khaby Lame joins Fortnite
TikTok star Khaby Lame is the latest major name to join the battle royale and gets his own ICON skin in season four.
The Italian is the most-followed user on TikTok with over 161 million followers on the platform and now brings his incredible social-media fanbase to the battle royale. The collab was first teased by Lame in a video where he is seen opening multiple boxes, before finally peering inside a black box with the eclipse sigil on it.
Players can unlock the Khaby Lame skin by purchasing the Chapter Four, season four battle pass.
