The Fortnite Republic chests can currently be found in three locations across the game's map:

  • Between The Citadel and Shatters Slabs
  • West of Slappy Shores
  • Southwest of Frenzy Fields.

All the Fortnite Star Wars chest locations are also marked on the map above, so you can see exactly where you need to drop. 

Each location contains several Republic chests, which you can interact with and open for new loot.

Every Star Wars chest comes with the powerful DC-15 Blaster, a new weapon with infinite ammo and a decent range, allowing you to quickly deal with any other players hovering around the chests.

Along with the DC-15 Blaster, Fortnite Republic chests also contain a random selection of items like Medkits, Shield Potions, Chug Splashes, and more.

That's all for our coverage of the Fortnite Star Wars chest locations, and now you know how to find all the Republic chests and secure the DC-15 Blaster to help with your victory.
