Get special permission to break into empire bunkers

As you experience LEGO Fortnite’s Star Wars event, you’ll often find large bunkers housing Stormtroopers, valuable materials, and loot you can’t get elsewhere. However, accessing these requires getting code clearance, which you’ll get after progressing through a few Rebel Outpost levels.

You’ll unlock code clearance in LEGO Fortnite after reaching Rebel Outpost level six. Once you hit level six, you’ll find an objective asking you to explore your first empire bunker. Talking to Captain Bravara after starting this upgrade task will reward you with a Lightsaber and clearance code, allowing you to explore the bunkers and gather any loot they contain.

Be careful as you explore empire bunkers. You’ll often find several Stormtroopers guarding the bunker’s entrance. Watch your health; they can easily get some lucky shots with their E-11 Blasters. You’ll also find more Stormtroopers and explosive barrels within the bunker, which you can use to quickly deal with the bunker’s structures and enemies.

How to find Empire Bunkers in LEGO Fortnite

Once you have your code clearance and Lightsaber from Captain Bravara, you’re ready to go out and explore your first empire bunker. Doing this requires using your macrobinoculars to search for a red circular symbol, which you’ll follow to find a large bunker.

After taking out any nearby Stormtroopers, you can break open the door using your lightsaber or safely open it using your clearance code. Upon entering the cave, you’ll find regular cave resources and treasure chests, which you can loot for extra items. You’ll also encounter groups of Stormtroopers and base camps. Destroying these can net you materials such as Durasteel and Plastoid, which you’ll need for Rebel Outpost upgrades and crafting Star Wars event items.
