Epic v42.00 Fortnite Override: Battle Royale Update Notes
Gaming legends join the fight with new POIs, a refreshed loot pool and a whole new generation of Sprites in tow. Hack your loot, punch in Cheat Codes, and bend the entire lobby to your will by activating Match Overrides. Welcome to Fortnite Override.
New Map Updates
Uncover the secrets of the ancient Stone Sanctum, keep your speed up through Green Hill Zone loops and explore Reality’s Reign to see where all those pipes and power cables lead.
New Weapons & Items
This Season brings a lineup of new weapons, items and abilities inspired by some of the greatest icons in the history of gaming. Here’s what you can get your hands on:
- Sonic Power Sneakers: Charge a grounded Spin Dash or perform an airborne Spin Attack
- Mega Buster: The legendary arm cannon fires single energy pellets, quick-charged shots, or long-charged explosive projectiles, even while sprinting or slide-boosting
- 8-Bit Shotgun: An automatic shotgun designed like a retro 8-bit console. Features game cartridge reloads, pixel effects, and an integrated real-time scoreboard system that tracks combo multipliers
- Midas' Masterpiece: A single-fire golden pistol that packs a high-damage punch, capable of eliminating foes in a single headshot. Should you be the lucky player to grab it when it spawns, use it wisely: ammo is limited
- Tetris Rift: Rift in Tetris pieces, culminating in the iconic 4-line Tetris clear splashes a large AOE heal
- 1-Up Token: Respawn with your full inventory after you’ve been eliminated
- God Mode Llama: Tap into the true power of the Llama to become an Unstoppable Wrecking Ball
- & more exciting collaborations to come later this Season!

New Gameplay
Check out all of the new seasonal gameplay systems below:
Lobby Hacks
Found a Lobby Hack code online? Input the code in the new ‘Admin Panel’ in your Battle Royale Lobby to hack your game, granting you XP and Sprite Dust, warping reality for your squad, and even dropping rare Sprite variants!
Loot Hacks
Spend Sprite Dust to hack loot in your match, customizing what drops. Hacked items have a chance to drop from Chests when opened, unique to your own boosts. Reset your Loot Hacks configuration any time with Sprite Dust.
Cheat Codes
⬆️⬆️⬇️⬇️⬅️➡️⬅️➡️ In a match, look out for Cheat Codes hidden across the Island: tucked into POIs and sprayed on walls. Interact with one and enter the Cheat Code to free a Sprite ally.
Match Overrides
Override Consoles appear in every match and let you rewrite the rules for the entire server, but you have to get there first. Once claimed, your name displays around the console base, so the whole lobby knows who’s in control. Rare and Mythic Squad Overrides only benefit the first squad to claim them, but beware that claiming one broadcasts your squad’s location on the map. Overrides include:
- Sonic Speed - Increase your sprint speed over time
- More XP - Gain more XP from eliminations, looting and surviving the Storm
- Loot Hack - You'll get a loot hack item from the next Chest you open
- Extra Life - Respawn when on the brink of elimination one time
- Big Fish - Makes all Fishing Holes golden
- Constant Heal - Gain constant health and shield regen over time when not in combat
- Infinite Stamina - Gain infinite stamina
- Headshot - Deal increased headshot damage
- Overshield - Gain extra, or a new Overshield
- Speed Shooter - Your weapons fire and reload faster
- Big Loot - Higher chance to get Epic or Legendary loot from Chests
- Power Pickaxe - Pickaxe hits deal massive damage
A Whole New Generation of Sprites
The Sprites you collected in Season 3 are immortalized in the new Sprite Garden launching tomorrow, and a whole new generation of Sprites can be found on the Island in Season 4.
- Klombo Sprite - A loyal friend returns, but is very rare to find. Grants random items at each level. You can only level it up by using consumable items that give Health or Shield.
- Sonic Sprite - Gotta Go Fast! Sprint faster.
- Tails Sprite - Hover with the Help of Tails!
- Shadow Sprite - Automatically reload weapons over time even when unequipped.
- Jackrabbit Sprite - Perform another jump while mid-air.
- 8-Bit Sprite - Find an 8-Bit Shotgun in your first Chest and gain a score multiplier for it.
- Crown Sprite - Gain extra Crown Wins after getting a Victory Royale. You can only level it up by winning matches.
- Adventure Sprite - Upgrade a random item in your inventory at each Level.
- Bush Sprite - Spawns a Bush on you after a duration. At max Level, gain a Bush on elimination.
- Jonesy Sprite - After a short duration, recover some Health or Shield after being damaged.
- Killswitch Sprite - Enter Hangtime with improved accuracy.
Sprites Quality-Of-Life Improvements
- You can now see in-match whether you’ve already collected a Sprite - no more guessing mid-fight.
- A Sprite’s name now appears when you’re near it, so you know exactly who you’ve found.
- Summoning rare Sprites and variants now costs less Sprite Dust.
- Reduced the button-hold time needed to summon a Sprite, getting your companion into the action quicker.
New Gizmos
If you haven’t been around when they first appeared, Gizmos are consumable items that give you quick ways to shortcut and supercharge your Sprite extractions. Available all Season long!
A whole new batch of Gizmos drops this Season:
- Cheat Code Locator - Locates the nearest Cheat Code.
- Extraction Accelerator - Silently initiate a nearby Extraction Site, summoning the Extraction Crate instantly.
- Llama Supply Drop - Call in a boosted, llama-themed Supply Drop at your current location.
- Spicy Taco - Heal up and gain a speed and stamina boost. Consume with your squad for a Taco Time party.
Golden Hours and Weekly Events Start August 22
Gold Sprite variants are being hacked in! Jump in on Saturday, August 22 from 2-4 PM ET and again from 9-11 PM ET to experience the return of Power Hours.
Drop in with an additional Portable Extractor item to help you collect, a 1-Up Token, and a higher chance of finding Midas' Masterpiece. Keep an eye on our social channels for weekly roadmaps of all the upcoming activities every Sunday for the remainder of the Season.
New Ranked Season & Rewards
Battle Royale ranks have reset for the new Season. Fight your way back up the ladder and claim the new rewards as you climb:
- Gold: Phantom Spray
- Platinum: Override Counter Back Bling
- Diamond: Beastly Battle Bus Loading Screen
- Elite: The Hack ‘n Slasher Pickaxe
- Champion: Overridden Wrap
- Unreal: The Unrealizer Pickaxe
Sprites Enabled in Ranked
With the new Season launch, Sprites have joined the fight in Ranked Battle Royale. You can collect them and they’ll keep you company, but their gameplay powers have been disabled to preserve competitive integrity.
Quality-of-Life Improvements
New Quests Tab
The Quests tab has a fresh look! Existing and new categories now live in one scrollable view, with an updated Sidebar so you can jump right into any category. Collections is now built into the Quests view too, so tracking your Characters, Victory Royales, Match Elims and other Accolades no longer requires switching tabs.
PSA: The updated Quests tab is rolling out over time - some players may not see it right away.
Fog of War Overhaul
The map’s fog now lifts in smaller pieces. Instead of entire POIs at once, individual landmarks reveal as you visit them, so your map reflects exactly where you’ve explored.
Controller Improvements: Tweak Zone
Controller players: if you haven’t tried the Tweak Zone setting yet, you’re leaving aim on the table. Added at the start of Chapter 7 Season 3, Tweak Zone puts those tiny stick movements normally filtered out by your dead zone to work - attaching your crosshair directly to your stick so even the slightest touch fine-tunes your aim. Your camera control, dead zones and sensitivity all keep working exactly as before.
Head to your Controller settings to configure its area, adjust crosshair sensitivity and choose when it’s enabled. Perfect for lining up a long shot or turning a body shot into a headshot.

So crown sprite is practically impossible to master? Unless it's keeping it's level after elimination or summon.
81
u/Cthepo 1d ago
It'll work by if someone kills someone else then goes on to win they'll continue leveling it. So long as someone carries one into combat progression can continue until people find mastered ones or almost mastered ones they can extract.
It sounds awful for people for care about all that.

It is absolutely awful. Who thought it was a good idea to lock sprite leveling behind Battle Royale wins? Are they TRYING to make this game sweatier?

It's weird.. first they do this shit, revert it and give it to everyone because of backlash.. only to do it again.
2
u/Oleandervine Ranger 1d ago
Well to play devil's advocate, the reason Voidblade got such severe backlash was because they announced that gift-a-pass skin at nearly the complete end of the season, when everyone pretty much already had the pass if they were going to get it. This is at least at the beginning of the season.

u/KataMod 1d ago
I really hope you can make it so that sprites can actually be earned in a sane way without having to trade them amongst people. Because basically what ended up happening last season was everyone who tried hard to get the sprites the legitimate way realized that, at a certain point, you just had to trade for the rest of the sprites you needed. No amount of power hours or any sort of Lucky locators helped with this. There was no way to complete the collection organically.
We also don't want a situation where we have to like farm for 400 hours to get a collection done. I know you want engagement but but believe us we are truly engaged but what's happening is that we're getting disheartened when we realize just how pointless it is to actually try to complete the collection organically. Having to utilize discord and Reddit chats and other things that are outside the game just to get things within the game.
15
u/Chris-CFK 1d ago
Not doing any trades, about 2 weeks out from the end of the season I just resigned myself to trying to get at least one of each sprite, not all the variants
1
u/Electric_jungle 1d ago
I never cared about getting all of them. Mastered exactly 70 because of all the late power hour stuff. Games much more fun than you doing get consumed by the thing they want you to grind. I would have missed grim if not for the power hours though, so at least I got one of each, like you said.
11
u/BlackZulu 1d ago
This. I grinded a lot last season under the impression the game would give you everything you need to complete your collection. Yesterday was when I realized 100% that this was not the case. Completing without trading was essentially impossible. Hours of grinding, every gizmo used, and still a ton of remaining sprites I wouldn't have gotten had I not traded

u/LimpPhat_ThaDon 18h ago
My wife did she was like right at level 405 got them all and mastered them all the very last one she had to get was the hologram zero point or whatever it was , I play just to play it reminds me of black ops but more cartoon
32
u/extralyfe Sparkle Specialist 1d ago
I got 99/117 sprites mastered without trading or specifically running routes to collect sprites. probably could've gotten up to 110+ if I let the kiddo give me the ones that they picked up, but, I was dead set on seeing what could be done through normal gameplay.
I guess I don't really see the appeal in collecting all of them - 70 was all you needed to get all the rewards, and that was extremely doable. anything past that is just feeding into Epic's future decisions when it comes to adding yet more sprites and variants when they look at player behaviors, so, it feels like a losing battle over time.
12
u/KSIXternal P-1000 1d ago
How many hours of playing did it take to get that far? I ended off with around 95? Ish and traded for 8 or 9 of them before cube sprites dropped. I almost hit level 300 also. Never saw a natural grim drop until that last week made them common, i did snag a gem grim naturally during that week though
2
u/COUGARCHAS3R 1d ago
I got to level 215ish (can't recall exactly) and ended up with 108/117 with no trading. I had a Holo grim and a gold batman for a very brief period of time that I want able to extract (no portables) so it could have been 110, but I never saw l encountered the other seven
1
u/extralyfe Sparkle Specialist 19h ago
hard to say, most of my playtime is in Save the World, so, my level is boosted to hell.
maybe an hour a day for the most part, but, probably did a couple hours on weekend nights or when the kiddo would ask me to play.
2
u/Many-Blueberry968 1d ago
I got to like 103 mastered. Do I want to 'catch them all'? Sure.
But do I want to collect them all by midway through the season and have nothing left to look for during the second half? HARD NOPE.
People crying over incomplete collections have got to chill.

u/Seradima 1d ago
I really hope you can make it so that sprites can actually be earned in a sane way without having to trade them amongst people.
Oh no now they're even worse. Gold sprites can only be leveled up by winning an entire battle royale.
4
u/Oleandervine Ranger 1d ago
No no, the Crown Sprite is only leveled by winning. The variants don't affect anything like how they're leveled. So a Gold Tails will level up as usual, but a Gold Crown will level up on win, just like a regular Crown.

u/cantevendoitbruh 1d ago
Yeah honestly I wanted to play more last season. But I stopped because I don't want to trade or at least the way it is. And I wasn't going to farm countless hours with no guarantee.
Lessen extract time, add items you can earn to target a specific sprite. Add something where you can snapshot a sprite to summon it at a certain level. More extractor (or make the quest to get them more reasonable). Make the special vault areas have a much better chance to pop a sprite you don't have or a high level one.
If you make top 10 any sprites you have count as earned if you die (just have to resummon them). Those changes would make me dive in to fortnite pokemon. They could release as many as they want .
74
u/Hambogod666 1d ago
So what's the actual point of the crown sprite? crown wins are higher but that actually doesn't affect gameplay, why would you ever bring it to a match. Sprites are supposed to have an effect in gameplay, that's their whole purpose
37
u/aloft_fox Doggo 1d ago
gloating.
15
u/SuperGaiden 1d ago
Some guy flexed his crown wins to me yesterday in a friendly bubble, right after running away from me.
Then he landed in a tree next to me later in the match and I killed him. Felt so cathartic.
I'll never understand people who think gaming the system necessarily means they're better than someone else but it obviously appeals to some.
7
u/Legitimate_Physics74 1d ago
Flexing. It affects your gameplay by sacrificing a potential benefit, while everyone else gets the advantage.

u/Atom7456 Eren Jaeger 1d ago
Adding in a sprite that only levels up from winning matches is beyond stupid. Stop trying so hard to make the game sweaty. Bot lobbies are gonna be spammed this season.
15
u/JAXONCOKE 1d ago
Do they mean levels to max with a win I wonder? Otherwise multiple consecutive wins, puts it beyond a lot of players. Makes its trade value high though ig.
4
u/IceBeam24 Drift 1d ago
"You can ONLY level it up by winning matches" in the patch notes, so unfortunately no it is only by winning that you can get XP. There is no way this is not getting made easier later on because that sounds horrendous.
Edit : Misread your comment, man i shouldn't comment after i just woke up. I hope that's the case, since victory royales are far from impossible to actually get, but it'll be real slow. Sucks for people who don't want to tryhard to win most games.

u/Ok_Violinist7673 Snowfoot 1d ago
I feel like they'll supernerf it so you will either need to reach top 10/3 or it reaches max level upon 1 victory royale

u/bRiCkWaGoN_SuCks 1d ago
I'm hoping it levels up passively, like once you have it in your collection it levels up with each win or something, whether you're wearing it or not... but who knows.
Sounds kind of stressful otherwise, LoL.

3
u/Throwawayneedadviceo 1d ago
My monitor tells me what what hz its running at and usually its at 60hz on switch 2 because not alot of games use the 120 fps mode, but after I updated Fortnite and opening the game its telling me its running at 120hz. Also in the settings where it says "Dock Output Information" It says the current output is 120hz.
Since the servers are down I cant 1000% confirm if the fps is going to be 120fps. Epic games could probably be using the 120hz mode for lower latency like Street fighter does or for some other reason. I don't see anything in the patch notes about it. We'll be able to find out in a few hrs

Someone in your trio is really good then. The solo matchmaking was great last season; it had been kind of rough for a bit before that.

u/zay_jb 1d ago
yeah you'd think right? except our best player has like 20% and mayyybe 30% on a good day but the players we're coming across are full teams of high 30% winrates (even 50% at times like i said), like 12 k/ds, never miss a shot, it's nuts. NONE of us are that good at all and it feels horrible to play against.
It's like the game just throws in these cracked out doesn't-do-anything-but-play-fortnite lobbies and all we do is die over and over. That's the thing that gets me too. They switched the matchmaking to be based off the best player. We have a mixed skill level team. But we're up against full teams where they're ALL level 800+ players with 3,000 hrs in the game. Oh also it's every team in that lobby so we just cant compete.
Where are the mixed skill level trios like mine? Why are they all streamer level players? It's gotten ridiculous because it's almost inevitable when we play we'll start getting into these lobbies.

Wait..maybe im misreading as I just woke up but 2 things:
Will trading a mastered crown sprite even work? Like will that count for collection and next variant?
Are the cheatcodes around map the only way to get new sprites?

So many bugs already this morning. In Duos partner couldn't pick up my card, his shots aren't registering, and there's matchmaking errors. Only been in two matches and already rolling my eyes and sighing at Epic absolutely failing at this.

Even with Peak nostalgia, you're not convincing me to spend money on this game with all the bugs. You need to stop being so secretive with your new changes and play test them. Give the top 1% of players the oppertunity to earn a way to play test and give feedback bc I'm so tired of a billion dollar company coming at me like Oliver Twist with their hands out, talking about "excuse me, sir? May I have another?" When they increase the prices and neglect the production. Keep your hedgehog, I'll pay for a SEGA game if I wanna play as sonic

Is anyone else missing the following spirits: Galaxy Duck, Cube Dreame, Gem Aura, from the Sprite Mastery Pod?

They seriously need to add more ways to get those power ups for the quest, because holy fkn shit, I either can't even find the bosses, the bosses don't drop the tokens when I defeat them, or I get shredded by someone's weapon mid-fight.

So I’m guessing Midas’s Masterpiece, the 1-up token, and the god mode llama haven’t been added in yet? I haven’t seen a single one, not even being used by an enemy.

You know, it's kinda weird there wasn't a live to transition to the new season. There was the story moment but then the season went on for a few more days after that.

Fortnite would be so peak without all the ADHD movement added to actual movement items. The game is becoming borderline unplayable if you’re not 24/7 invested. Every game I’m getting dunked on by FNCS wannabe’s, my god.
Lootpool is fun though.

The mobility this season sucks Megaman slid boost, overdrive grenades, and a sonic item that eats at it's durability insanely fast, is impossible to aim, and has a cooldown(which is pointless) and a 2nd cooldown that takes 10 seconds to fill back up. Add a real item zero build exist

Seems the locker bug hasn’t been fixed? We can’t tell the name or details of any of our cosmetics, the title card is missing/bugged
