Fortnite is never hesitant to push extra mile during a collaboration, Chapter 6 Season 3, in particular, takes the urgency to a galactic scale with a Star Wars-themed event. Lightsabers, stormtrooper skins, and epic story quests aplenty, but the main topic of buzz among gamers would have to be the introduction of flyable TIE Fighters .
This is the time for anyone who has ever wanted to fly an Imperial TIE Fighter and shower laser fire onto the Island. It's not just a matter of finding one and hopping in; it's a challenge, a mission, and true to Fortnite fashion, a bit of a scramble.
Who are TIE fighters?Unlike certain traditional vehicles and odd seasonal drops, TIE Fighters don’t have a fixed spawn point in Fortnite. These sleek Empire ships work off a semi-random spawning system, leaving players puzzled. One time you might find one tucked in the snowy ridges just above the First Order Base, while the next time will yield nothing. That’s half the thrill and half the pain.
But here is a silver lining, there is a consistent spawn point—but with a caveat. You need to complete some light work there before takeoff.
Your mission: repair and launch
At this rare TIE Fighter crash site-usually close to the First Order Base-the fighter is down and in need of some fuel before flying again. Interacting with a terminal close to the ship starts the quest: collect three fuel canisters scattered across the site.
Try searching for them in these locations:
Why the TIE fighter mattersNot really only that it contributes coolness (yes, it would be cool to zoom past players in a TIE Fighter), these aircraft will provide a strategic benefit as well: Elevated vision over a map, mobility, and blasters for facing ground enemies or air ones, while great value.
Now, what makes it even more interesting is the installment of the story. It is believed that TIE Fighters and X-Wings will prove significant in the event closing season finale, which means that locating and mastering one sooner rather than later may just give you the tactical edge when the grand finale drops.
Tips and tricks:
More bonus pointsReceiving satisfaction from a simple stunt is perhaps more warmly spoken than anything else that pilot-winks-for-are-rewarding. Approximately 500 XP are released after completing the repair mission-wash it simply rewarding for the battle pass.
As TIE Fighter enters Fortnite, it is not a paper doll to please the old-timers but an active item that blends combat, exploration, and narrative in one captivating gift. Be it from dogfights up in the sky, or whichever casuistry you can involve in your own Imperial saga, there can be no hunting and riding of a TIE Fighter comfortably this season.

Try searching for them in these locations:
- Behind the barrier located just north of the ship
- Next to a pile of crates to the west
- Beside a rock in front of the console

Tips and tricks:
- Drop early: If you're headed for the fixed point, drop as soon as the Battle Bus allows, and glide directly to the TIE Fighter site. Otherwise, someone might beat you there.
- Gear up fast: Other players know this spot too. Land nearby, grab a weapon, and be ready for a fight.
- Know fuel locations: Speed is everything. Knowing exactly where you need to go will save those all-important seconds and quite probably save your life as well.
