While Fortnite continues to bring out a wealth of content through Epic Games, hard-working developers are offering plenty more to enjoy in creative modes, and Star Wars Droid Tycoon is set for a new C-3PO event.
Droid Tycoon has become a popular mode in Fortnite, regularly updating with new events, Droids to collect, and endgame activities, like Super Rebirths, so there’s always something to do.
If you’re preparing to lock in for the C-3PO event in Droid Tycoon, Insider Gaming has all the important details.
When Does The Droid Tycoon C-3PO Event Begin?
The C-3PO event in Star Wars Droid Tycoon in Fortnite is set to begin on Saturday, July 11, although time zone differences mean it may be Sunday when the action commences in your time zone.
C-3PO arrives in Droid Tycoon as a new Mythic droid available to earn during the event, who will then be purchasable in future using Nova Crystals, if you missed the event.
However, you should make sure to tune in to the event, even if it’s just to grind through quickly to get C-3PO, as it’s set to be one of the best Droids available in the game, joining the likes of BB8, R2-D2, and Mister Bones as must-haves.
If you do stick around for the event, there will be other rewards to earn, likely including an easy way to get additional Nova Crystals, alongside boosts to Credits, Upgrade Chips, and more.

How Long is The Droid Tycoon C-3PO Event?
Developer FoadZone has confirmed the C-3PO event in Star Wars Droid Tycoon will last for a full 24 hours, meaning you won’t need to clear your schedule.
While many previous events, including the R2-D2 event, had a limited window, it’s being blown wide open for the C-3PO event, and there’s more than enough time to grind through it.
The C-3PO event may also return in future, before disappearing and only becoming available to purchase via Nova Crystals, so there’s no excuse to miss out on this Mythic Droid.
While the boosts it provides are yet to be revealed, they’re sure to be among the best in the game, offering a unique perk when equipped as a companion, alongside a huge Credits boost when put to work.
