Fortnite early patch notes for update 35.10 – Chewbacca and Mandalorians arrive
Star Wars' takeover of Fortnite isn't nearly done yet as a new update is on its way to come through with the content needed to carry it through the next two weekly weapon deliveries.
More Star Wars action is set to come to Fortnite in the next update, and in a surprising turn for this season, leaks are sparse, and Epic Games' communication as to what's coming is better than it has ever been.
Fortnite is in the throes of its new Star Wars season now, and already, it has ruffled as many feathers as it has pleased long-time fans of the galaxy far, far away. The new POIs on the map and the skins in the Chapter 6 Season 3 Battle Pass are all incredibly dedicated reflections of the franchise that already had a lot of interest and content to offer Fortnite fans, but the total removal of weapons that use ammunition in favour of confusingly-named cooldown-based guns that do the job, but don't inspire a lot of excitement.
Depending on which side of the fence you're playing on, it doesn't matter much – more Star Wars content is on the way, and a few new features are on their way with it, especially in the new Fortnite update. It'll help, then, to take a look at the Fortnite early patch notes for update 35.10, which already are offering a great peek into the next stage of Galactic Battle. But what's actually on the way? Here's what you can look forward to in the future with the Fortnite early patch notes.
Fortnite early patch notes for update 35.10
New features
There isn't much in the way of leaks in the Fortnite early patch notes right now, but that's largely because the game has shown its cards already. A number of new features are on their way as a part of the confirmed five waves of content in the Fortnite early patch notes that Epic Games revealed back when it announced the shorter-than-normal season. Here's what will be introduced in the new update for Fortnite, and rolled out across the coming weeks:
Chewbacca comes to the island on Thursday, May 15, along with his Wookie Bowcaster, as well as the CA-87 Jawa Scatter Blaster, which can be found in chests
Thursday, May 22 will bring the dawn of the Mandalorian, with a number of hirable hands appearing across the island and unvaulting the Mandalorian Jetpack. Along with this will come the Amban Sniper Rifle and dual-wielded Westar-34 Blaster Pistols.
There is one more bout of new content set to come to the game as well as the incoming Death Star Sabotage in-game narrative live event, but these features will be established in update 35.20 on Thursday, May 29.
Bug fixes
The best way we can piece together Fortnite early patch notes is to take a look at the Fortnite community Trello board, where Epic Games developers share the bugs and issues that the team is aware of, and is working to resolve in the next batch of fixes. Here's everything currently marked as 'Fixed in Next Game Update' on the Fortnite Trello board:
General / Top Issues
Built-In Emotes do not play in Creative / UEFN Experiences – we're investigating an issue where built-in emotes, emotes attached to certain Outfits only, do not play when in a Creative or UEFN experience.
Battle Royale
The 'Run through rings on the course' Quest UI stops updating progress after 9 rings – Accepting Luke Skywalker's Story Quest to 'Run through rings on the course' displays a visual-only issue where the Quest UI stops updating progress after 9 rings. The Quest will still complete successfully after running through all 10 rings.
Rocket Racing
Ranked Rewards' preview icons not displaying corresponding coloured Style icons – Preview icons for the colored Styles of the Relentor, Luglock and Firecrack cosmetic items are displaying the default item icon instead of their corresponding colored Style icon on the Quest Reward screens. This is visual only – players are still receiving the correct rewards.
Save the World
Players might get stuck if they use Jam Loops just before completing a Mission – if the player is jamming right before their Mission ends, they might get stuck for about two minutes before they are sent back to the Homebase. This occurs if Performance Mode is used.
Flutter's Wisp eliminations do not trigger 'On Elimination' effects or contribute to Combat Score – When paired with an 'On Elimination' effect ability, Flutter's Wisplight (+) Perk will not trigger the given effect, or count towards the Mission Combat Score.
Rejoining a party after leaving may result in being stuck on the 'Waiting for Party Leader' screen – Players who leave the party and attempt to rejoin may become stuck on the 'Waiting for Party Leader' Mission screen. This will be fixed in the next game update.
This is everything currently set to be fixed up in the incoming Fortnite update! It's plenty for the Epic Games team to be getting on with in a season that has already been a great time for many players. Controversial though it may be, this next update will offer players even more than they had before, and that's certainly nothing to be sniffed at.

The Twisters star was seen filming a bus stunt scene in Glasgow this week as shooting takes place for the American fantasy titled Ghostwriter. Filming for the movie by former Star Wars director JJ Abrams started in Glasgow on Saturday after principal photography began in London on April 26. The crew previously filmed scenes in Edinburgh. Glasgow is said to be doubling as a futuristic New York for the movie, which also stars Samuel L Jackson, Emma Mackey, and Jenna Ortega. Produced by Warner Bros, the film marks Abrams' first project since Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker in 2019. Filming is taking place throughout the city in June with a number of roads closed between June 8 and 23. Glasgow City Council says the project will bring millions to the local economy.

Midlothian man quit school after making £10k a month managing Fortnite players from bedroom
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Get the latest Edinburgh Live breaking news on WhatsApp A young Midlothian man quit school after earning £10,000 a month managing some of the world's biggest online gamers from his bedroom. Ross McLaren, 22, was born with a rare form of muscular dystrophy which left him wheelchair bound. He dreamed of becoming a professional Fortnite player but instead built a six-figure business at the age of 17 while living at home with his parents, Lesley and Craig. Now Ross manages a team of ten and oversees the daily operations of some of the biggest names in online gaming including megastar Fortnite players Clix and Sentinel, reports The Daily Record. He told the Record: "I really wanted to be a pro-Fortnite player but I realised I wasn't good enough. "I got into video editing for professional Fornite players and started working with small gaming streamers for free when I was in school. "By summer 2021 I was making £10,000 per month and I told my parents I didn't want to sit my Advanced Highers. "They had their doubts and asked me to go back to school - but I quit after one day." Ross explained how his disability enabled him to get into the gaming world and hone his craft. He said: "Having muscular dystrophy was somewhat of an advantage for me as it meant I spent a lot more time on a computer when I was younger as I couldn't go out and play sports like other kids." The then-schoolboy began offering his video editing services to small streamers for fun. Just as he was about to give up, Ross struck gold. "I was working with a streamer called Bugha who only had about 20,000 subscribers," he said. "Bugha played in the Fortnite World Cup in 2018 and won $3million. Overnight, his subscriber count hit one million.' Bugha– now with 4.7million YouTube subscribers – stuck with Ross, and business 'spiralled from there'. Ross then caught the eye of another famous Fornite player called Clix who had 3.5 million YouTube subscribers. Following pressure from his parents, Ross went back to George Heriot's School for one day before quitting - and landed one of the biggest opportunities of his career. He was asked to run a gaming channel fronted by UK YouTube icon KSI who boasts more than 22 million subscribers. He now works as a freelancer, and manages content for professionals like Clix and top E-Sports organisation Sentinels, based in Los Angeles. Top Fortnite streamers like Clix earn around £100,000 per month and Ross collects a lucrative commission for producing content. The young entrepreneur now has his sights on relocating to the US to be closer to his star clients. He added: "It's crazy how things have turned out. "My job didn't exist a few years ago - now business is thriving. "I hope to move to Dallas. With Fortnite, the servers are based there and many of the players are. "I'm planning on taking the leap to move to be closer to my clients."
