Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers, kept current. Something missing? It's probably covered in the guides.
› What is the island code for Star Wars: Droid Tycoon?
The island code is 7865-8305-9184. Enter it in Fortnite's Discover search or the Island Code tab to play.
› Is Star Wars: Droid Tycoon free to play?
Yes. It's a free experience inside Fortnite — if you can play Fortnite, you can play Droid Tycoon at no extra cost.
› How many Rebirth levels are there?
23. A recent update extended the ladder past the long-standing cap of 20 — most guides still list only 20 levels. The final three levels cost 3T/4.5T/6T credits and require Beskar-version droids; the full table is in our Progression guide.
› How do I get Upgrade Chips?
Sell Gold, Diamond, Rainbow, or Beskar droids — that's the main source (chips no longer come from missions). You can also pick them up around the map, but it's slow. Spend them at the Upgrade Station behind the Cantina, and don't forget the Pit Droid's free upgrade roll once every 24 hours.
› What's the fastest way to earn credits early?
Hit the Scrap Station — it outpays your starter droids by a wide margin. Then reinvest into your factory, and pick up extra credits from Cantina droid requests, quests, and defeating stormtroopers.
› What are the rarest droids?
The three Mythics — BB-8, Mister Bones, and IG-11 — which are all event-exclusive and only obtainable during their own Mythic events, plus Beskar-version droids, the new top tier above Rainbow. Mythics are currently Base-version only.
› How do I get Beskar droids?
Two ways: guaranteed Sandcrawler spawns (a countdown timer on top of the Sandcrawler shows the next one — every 20 minutes, one per player in the lobby) plus random spawns, or by upgrading a droid past Rainbow with Upgrade Chips or the free daily Pit Droid roll. Beskar events boost the odds significantly.
› When do events happen?
Events typically run on weekends and weekday evenings, usually starting at 5 PM Eastern Time. They boost drop odds, rebirth rewards, or bring back event-exclusive droids — check our Events page for what's coming.
› Do I lose my droids when I Rebirth?
Rebirth resets your factory progress in exchange for a permanent credit boost and new base areas. Specific droids at specific versions are required to qualify for each level — check the full requirements table in our Progression guide before you commit.
› How many players are in a lobby?
Up to 6. Lobby size matters more than you'd think: guaranteed Beskar spawns scale at one per player, so fuller lobbies spawn more Beskars — but with more competition for each one.
› Is this the official Droid Tycoon website?
No — this is an unofficial fan guide. We're not affiliated with Epic Games, Lucasfilm, or Disney. We just play the game and keep the numbers current.
