Fortnite Sprite Spree Week runs Aug 14–19

Fortnite's Sprite Spree Week runs from August 14 through August 19, with daily Power Hours that boost rare Sprite spawns. Epic Games is using the event to give players a final chance to complete their Chapter 7 Season 3 Sprite collection before Season 4: Override launches on August 20. The week also adds free Sprite summons, faster leveling, and a Lucky Locator Gizmo reward for daily quests.

Weeklong bonuses

  • Sprites level up twice as quickly.
  • Summoning extracted Sprites is free and needs no Sprite Dust.
  • Campfires level Sprites faster.
  • Completing Daily Quests unlocks a Lucky Locator Gizmo that prioritizes Sprites you haven't found yet or unmastered Sprites.

Daily Power Hour schedule

Why it matters

For completionist Fortnite players, this is the last window to finish Season 3 Sprite collections before those Sprites leave the Battle Royale loot pool. Collected Sprites remain available in the Sprite Garden, a new UEFN (Unreal Editor for Fortnite) experience launching with Season 4; Season 4 introduces new Sprites to collect.
