This announcement makes us think that there will be some kind of special event on that day, and who knows, maybe the skin will be released along with the Item Shop update.
Two Star Wars sets that would include skins and other cosmetic items were rumored to be added, according to leaks. Despite this, many players still hold to the idea that Cal Kestis will make an appearance in Fortnite, since the release of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is very close to the date mentioned in the official tweet.

Anakin Skywalker finally arrives in Fortnite as the chosen one of the force
Last year, Fortnite hosted a special two-week event to celebrate May 4th. The event featured new themed weapons, lightsabers, Stormtrooper checkpoints, and the appearance of the iconic villain Darth Vader as a boss on the island. Now, players can look forward to the arrival of Star Wars missions that will allow them to unlock additional items for free. More details will be revealed shortly, and in just a few days, players will be able to claim the long-awaited Victory Royale while sporting the newly arrived Anakin Skywalker mask.
Initially, Fortnite fans were excited to hear about collaborations, and were surprised by the names of big companies that wanted to join the game to create incredible experiences. However, as Fortnite has been gaining more and more power, gamers are no longer as excited to see franchises and brands partnering with the game. Now, it’s almost to be expected that Fortnite will have impressive collaborations with big-name companies.
