Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3: Sprite Spree Week Schedule and Details
Fortnite enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating the "Sprite Spree Week" event, set to commence on Saturday, August 15th, within Chapter 7 Season 3. This special week, which continues until the season's conclusion, promises an enhanced probability of encountering a variety of sprites. The festivities kick off with dedicated sprite hours coinciding with the "Unstable Story Moment," the live event marking Chapter 7 Season 3. Following this, an assortment of sprites, including Galaxy, Holo, Cube, and Gem, will feature elevated spawn rates for 24-hour durations. This period presents a golden opportunity for players to finalize their sprite collections, as these cosmetic acquisitions will seamlessly transition into Season 4. Given the limited time remaining in the current season, understanding the detailed schedule for "Sprite Spree Week" is crucial for maximizing gameplay.
The "Sprite Spree Week" is structured to offer distinct sprite bonuses each day from August 15th to August 19th. Specifically, Saturday, August 15th, will host "Mythic Hours" from 2-4 p.m. EDT and again from 9-11 p.m. EDT. Subsequently, "Galaxy Hours" will begin at 9 a.m. EDT on Sunday, August 16th, extending for a full 24 hours. Monday, August 17th, will see the start of "Holo Hours" at 9 a.m. EDT, also lasting 24 hours. "Cube Hours" are slated for Tuesday, August 18th, from 9 a.m. EDT for 24 hours, and finally, "Gem Hours" will commence on Wednesday, August 19th, at 9 a.m. EDT for another 24-hour period. Beyond Saturday, players will also benefit from starting each game with a Lucky Sprite Locator, earning double sprite XP, and enjoying zero sprite dust cost. A teaser hinting at a campfire suggests that players might also gain sprite XP when resting at these in-game locations.
For players across various time zones, aligning with the "Mythic Hours" and daily sprite bonuses is key. The initial "Mythic Hours" are scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. EDT on Saturday, August 15th, concluding at 4 p.m. EDT. This translates to 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. PDT for North America's west coast, 3-5 p.m. BRT for Brazil, 7-9 p.m. BST for the U.K., 8-10 p.m. CEST for western Europe, 3-5 a.m. JST on Sunday, August 16th, for Japan, and 4-6 a.m. AEST on Sunday, August 16th, for Australia's east coast. While Epic Games did not explicitly list a second set of "Mythic Hours," based on previous events, it is anticipated to occur from 9-11 p.m. EDT, adjusting accordingly for other regions.
Regarding the daily "Sprite Spree Week" bonuses for Galaxy, Holo, Cube, and Gem sprites, an official start time has not been formally announced by Epic Games. However, historical data from prior sprite events indicates a consistent start time of 9 a.m. EDT, with each bonus period lasting for 24 hours. Assuming this pattern holds, players in different regions can expect these daily bonuses to commence around 6 a.m. PDT for North America's west coast, 10 a.m. BRT for Brazil, 2 p.m. BST for the U.K., 3 a.m. CEST for western Europe, 10 a.m. JST for Japan, and 11 a.m. AEST for Australia's east coast. This comprehensive schedule allows players worldwide to strategically plan their gaming sessions to take full advantage of the "Sprite Spree Week" event.
The "Sprite Spree Week" in Fortnite's Chapter 7 Season 3 offers a limited window for players to significantly boost their sprite collections and enjoy unique in-game benefits. With increased spawn rates for various sprite types, double XP, and reduced costs, this event is designed to enrich the player experience as the season draws to a close. Players are encouraged to consult the detailed schedule and time zone conversions to ensure they do not miss out on the opportunities presented during this exciting week.
