Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 just dropped, and the island has never looked more intense. The new season doesn’t just bring Star Wars flair; it introduces four brand-new Points of Interest (POIs) that completely shake up the battlefield. Whether you're hunting epic loot or just want to drop into fresh chaos, here's a quick tour of every new location you need to check out.
1. First Order BaseSet in the far northeast corner of the map, the First Order Base is where order (and blasters) reign. This heavily fortified POI replaces the former Demon’s Dojo and features a full-scale TIE fighter hangar. What’s special? A utility shaft offers sneaky entry for clever players, while the real prize here is Captain Phasma’s Mythic blaster and her Medallion—if you can take her down.
2. Outpost EnclaveFinally, the southeastern part of the map brings you to the Outpost Enclave, a dusty, rebellious hotspot replacing Hopeful Heights. It’s home to smugglers, hidden stashes, and a massive Sandcrawler looming in the backdrop. Expect close-quarter battles and fast-paced action. If you love loot-heavy drop zones, this one’s for you.
3. Resistance BaseHead northwest, just beyond Flooded Frogs, and you'll find the Resistance Base—a sleek underground lair built for rebellion. Previously known as Whiffy Wharf, this POI is now your go-to spot for high-tech gear and X-wings waiting to be explored. It’s quiet, deep, and perfect for gearing up before big fights. Plus, new weapons exclusive to this location are now part of the loot pool.
4. Vader Samurai’s SolitudeJourney to the southwestern edge of the island and you’ll run into Vader Samurai’s Solitude—a mashup of sci-fi and feudal Japan. This location replaces Shogun’s Solitude and cranks the heat with Stormtrooper Samurai guards patrolling the area. Defeat them, and you'll face the Dark Lord himself—Darth Vader. Take him down, and his iconic lightsaber becomes yours.
Final ThoughtsEach new POI sits on a corner of the island—deliberately spread out to encourage map-wide exploration. From air hangars to desert outposts, Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 blends Star Wars storytelling with core battle royale strategy. Whether you're hunting mythics or chasing the dub, these new locations are where the action truly begins.
