Fortnitemares power hours: Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 times

Fortnitemares power hours arrive in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 on Saturday, 10 October. For Australian players, the two event windows take place on Sunday, 11 October.

During these limited-time sessions, the drop rates for Spooky Dash sprites, The Deer sprites and Vampire sprites will increase. Every player will also begin with a witch broom, while additional pumpkin chests appear across the island.

Chests can still contain 1-Up tokens and portable extractors during the event. If you are completing your collection, the boosted sprite rates make these Fortnitemares power hours worth scheduling around.
