Fortnite Sprite Spree Week schedule for Chapter 7 Season 3

Fortnite Sprite Spree Week: dates and rewards

Sprite Spree Week arrives in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 on Saturday, 15 August. From then until the season ends, selected sprites will have better spawn odds across a series of timed events.

The opening Mythic Hours coincide with the Unstable Story Moment, the live event for Chapter 7 Season 3. After that, Galaxy, Holo, Cube and Gem sprites each receive a 24-hour boost. Sprites collected during the event will carry over as cosmetics into Season 4, making this a useful opportunity to complete your collection before the season finishes.

Sprite Spree Week schedule

The event runs from Saturday, 15 August, through Wednesday, 19 August. These are the announced windows and featured sprite types:

• Saturday, 15 August: Mythic Hours from 2–4 p.m. EDT and 9–11 p.m. EDT.
• Sunday, 16 August: Galaxy Hours begin at 9 a.m. EDT and run for 24 hours.
• Monday, 17 August: Holo Hours begin at 9 a.m. EDT and run for 24 hours.
• Tuesday, 18 August: Cube Hours begin at 9 a.m. EDT and run for 24 hours.
• Wednesday, 19 August: Gem Hours begin at 9 a.m. EDT and run for 24 hours.

Outside the Saturday opening hours, players will begin each game with a Lucky Sprite Locator, earn double sprite XP and pay no sprite dust. A teaser also shows a campfire, suggesting that resting at one may award sprite XP, although this has not been confirmed.

Mythic Hours in Australian and international time zones

The first Mythic Hours window begins at 2 p.m. EDT on Saturday, 15 August and ends at 4 p.m. EDT. It starts at the same time as the Unstable Story Moment.

• 11 a.m.–1 p.m. PDT, Saturday, 15 August: west coast of North America.
• 2–4 p.m. EDT, Saturday, 15 August: east coast of North America.
• 3–5 p.m. BRT, Saturday, 15 August: Brazil.
• 7–9 p.m. BST, Saturday, 15 August: the United Kingdom.
• 8–10 p.m. CEST, Saturday, 15 August: western Europe.
• 3–5 a.m. JST, Sunday, 16 August: Japan.
• 4–6 a.m. AEST, Sunday, 16 August: Australia’s east coast.

The published event graphic does not list a second Mythic Hours window. If a second session follows the pattern used for previous sprite hours, its expected start times are:

• 6–8 p.m. PDT, Saturday, 15 August: west coast of North America.
• 9–11 p.m. EDT, Saturday, 15 August: east coast of North America.
• 10 p.m. BRT, Saturday, 15 August, to midnight, Sunday, 16 August: Brazil.
• 2–4 a.m. BST, Sunday, 16 August: the United Kingdom.
• 3–5 a.m. CEST, Sunday, 16 August: western Europe.
• 10 a.m.–12 p.m. JST, Sunday, 16 August: Japan.
• 11 a.m.–1 p.m. AEST, Sunday, 16 August: Australia’s east coast.

Galaxy, Holo, Cube and Gem bonus times

An official start time has not been provided for the four 24-hour sprite bonuses. Based on earlier sprite days, the expected pattern is a 9 a.m. EDT start, followed by an end time 24 hours later.

• 6 a.m. PDT: west coast of North America.
• 9 a.m. EDT: east coast of North America.
• 10 a.m. BRT: Brazil.
• 2 p.m. BST: the United Kingdom.
• 3 a.m. CEST: western Europe.
• 10 a.m. JST: Japan.
• 11 a.m. AEST: Australia’s east coast.

Australian players on the east coast should therefore watch for the Galaxy, Holo, Cube and Gem rotations from 11 a.m. AEST on their respective days. If you are setting up a gaming space for longer sessions, the arcade machine buying guide can help with planning, while compact bartop arcades suit smaller rooms.
