Every Fortnite Sprite Hour Start Time: Full Spree Week Schedule
Fortnite Sprite Spree Week: Everything You Need to Know (Simple Guide)
Hey there! Imagine Fortnite is like a giant playground, and Sprites are special, magical pets you can collect. Some of these pets are super rare—like finding a shiny Pokémon card. Well, Epic Games (the makers of Fortnite) is throwing a five-day party called Sprite Spree Week to help you catch those rare ones before the season ends!
Let’s break it all down in the simplest way possible.
What Is Sprite Spree Week?
Think of it as a special holiday sale, but instead of discounts, you get way more chances to find rare Sprites.
Key Details:
- When: August 15 – August 19 (ends early morning August 20)
- Why: To help you finish your Sprite collection before Chapter 7 Season 3 ends
- Big Bonus: During the whole week, Sprites are FREE to resummon (no Sprite Dust needed!), Campfires give extra XP, Sprites level up 2x faster, and you can earn Lucky Locators.
IMPORTANT: Your Sprite collection WILL carry over to Chapter 7 Season 4 (starting August 20). So you’re not losing anything—this is just a "last chance to catch ’em easy" event!
