Fortnite’s Treasure Hunters mini season continues, with millions of players desperate to get their hands on the coveted Pirate Shop Token
The rare item, which grants players 28 days’ worth of free access to Fortnite’s item shop, has certainly helped make the season a huge success.
Today, on November 12, Treasure Hunters will be bolstered by the addition of 24 new sprites, some of which may assist you in your hunt for that aforementioned elusive golden coin.
As a reminder, ‘cursed’ variants retain a sprite’s original power while also making rare sprites more likely to appear; they do inflict water damage on the flipside, though.
‘Fortune’ variants also retain a sprite’s original power while letting you see nearby chests through walls. Both Cursed and Fortune variants are rarer than ordinary sprite versions.
Finally, ‘Gold’ variants are the rarest of all and allow you to triple XP gained throughout a match while also retaining that sprite’s original power.
Every new sprite joining Fortnite’sTreasure Hunters season
Gold Plundarrgh
This is the enhanced gold version of Plundarrgh, a sprite which allows you to gain increased pickaxe and movement speed upon opening chests. The duration will increase as you level this sprite up. This makes Gold Plundarrgh an excellent option for Pirate Shop Token hunters, as you can move from chest to chest or dig up buried chests quicker, allowing you to cover more ground.
Mini Miku / Cursed Mini Miku / Fortune Mini Miku / Gold Mini Miku
Mini Miku is a backbling-sized version of virtual singer Hatsune Miku. Mini Miku grants players a “Friendship Bubble” when emoting with other players, which sounds like a protective shield. The more you level up this sprite, the more the cooldown will decrease.
Equipping Zee will allow you to make use of regenerating Zero Point dash charges, helpful for traversal or making it more difficult for an enemy to hit you. Maximum charges will increase as you level the sprite up, plus the recharge time will decrease.
Gold Lil’ Flacko
This is the gold version of the existing Lil’ Flacko sprite, which creates a small shockwave upon landing, knocking back enemies. The more you level up the sprite, the more the shockwave powers up. Lil’ Flacko also nullifies very handy fall damage.
Gold Lil’ Uzu Vert Jr.
We’re also getting a gold version of the existing Lil’ Uzi Vert Jr. If you’re not familiar, this sprite generates a Chug Splash effect when restoring shields. The power’s cooldown decreases as you level the sprite up.
Sir Oscar The Second / Cursed Sir Oscar The Second / Fortune Sir Oscar The Second / Gold Sir Oscar The Second
Sir Oscar The Second is a brand new offering. This adorable sprite will grant increased pickaxe damage and offers a temporary speed boost if your shields are broken. As you level the little fella up, the pickaxe damage increases further, as does the speed boost.
Squiplash / Cursed Squiplash / Fortune Squiplash / Gold Squiplash
Squiplash is another new sprite with this charming little octopus deploying a healing smoke bomb if you’re at low health. The cooldown will decrease if you level the sprite up as the duration of the bomb increases.
Gold Lil’ Squibbly
The existing Lil’ Squibbly allows you to gain bonus loot from jumping into fishing spots, with this gold variant adding the triple XP boost. Level up to loot better items.
Gold Chester
Chester sprites grant the chance to spawn extra loot from Treasure Chests while also nullifying fall damage, also making this a useful one for Pirate Shop Token hunters. Levelling up Chester increases the chance of spawning even more loot, with this gold variant including that triple XP boost.
Gold Exmarks
This sprite grants you the triple XP boost alongside Exmarks’ usual power of revealing treasure maps and wanted posters. The sprite spawns a treasure map at the maximum level.
Gold Kelper
Kelper restores health over time in water, with the amount of health restored increasing as you level the sprite up. This is a gold version with the XP boost.
Gold Barry O’Fish
Barry O’Fish reduces the stamina drain when using tactical sprint in water, with Slap effects gained at the maximum level – plus you’re getting the gold XP boost.
Gold Wayfinder
We’re sure you’re getting the idea by now. Wayfinder reveals nearby sprites and grants more items when opening buried chests. Sprite detection increases as you level up Wayfinder, plus this version has the XP boost.
Gold Re-Pete
Alongside the gold XP boost, Re-Pete increases your reload speed and can occasionally refund your used ammo. Levelling up increases both effects further.
Gold Halfpeel’d
Finally, Gold Halfpeel’d offers the triple XP boost while also marking eliminations on the map, making it a perfect sprite for those who just want to go for victory and hunt down other players. The effect radius increases as you level up.
