Fortnite Sprites: Every Sprite and Ability in the Treasure Hunters Mini Season

Complete Fortnite sprites guide for the Chapter 7 Treasure Hunters mini season: every sprite ability, Fortune and Cursed variants, mastering tips, and FAQ.

What Sprites Are in the Treasure Hunters Mini Season

Sprites have taken over another season, this time as part of the Fortnite Chapter 7 mini season, "Treasure Hunters." These small companions work the same way they did in earlier seasons: you find them around the island, level them up while you play, and then extract them to master them. Mastering a sprite is worth the effort, because it unlocks rewards such as sprite dust and cosmetics.

One important note before you start hunting: sprites from previous seasons are not usable in this season's matches. Still, your old collection isn't useless — you can interact with past sprites in the Sprite Garden game mode, and any sprite you mastered can be shown off as a decorative back bling style.

All Fortnite Sprites and Their Abilities in Chapter 7

The Treasure Hunters update includes quite a few sprites to collect, and many of them arrive in different variants with bonus effects. Below are the headline sprites added as part of the Chapter 7 mini season, along with what each one does in a match.

Sprite	Ability
Halfpeel'd (a half-skeleton Peely)	Marks eliminations on the map. The detection range grows with each level.
Re-Pete (a parrot in a pirate hat)	Faster reloads, with a chance to refund ammo.

Epic Games keeps adding sprites as the season progresses. For example, a new sprite debuted during Lil' Uzi Vert's Captain Day on November 8, and more variants are expected before the mini season wraps up. Check back regularly so your collection stays complete — details here align with Polygon's Fortnite Chapter 7 mini season sprite guide, which is updated as new sprites drop.

Sprite Variants Explained: Fortune and Cursed

Just like last season, variants are slightly harder to come by than standard sprites, but they come with extra effects that can shape how you play a match:

Fortune: Reveals nearby chests, making it a strong pick if you're looting aggressively for gear.
Cursed: Increases your chance of finding rare sprite variants, but water damages you — a serious downside on an island full of rivers, coastlines, and storms that push fights toward the drink.

More variants will likely be released as the Treasure Hunters season continues, so it's worth revisiting this list as new ones go live.

How to Level Up and Master Sprites

The sprite loop is straightforward, but mastering every sprite takes planning. Follow these steps to make the most of each match:

Find a sprite around the island early in the match so you have time to level it up.
Carry and level it up as you play; each sprite's ability gets stronger as its detection range or effects improve.
Extract successfully to bank your progress — dying before extraction puts your work at risk.
Master the sprite to unlock rewards like sprite dust and cosmetics.

If you're chasing rare variants like Cursed, remember the trade-off: stepping into water will damage you, so plan your routes away from beaches and rivers until you've banked the sprite. The mini season's battle pass, which features One Piece favorites like Nico Robin and Ace, gives you even more reasons to keep playing through the event.

What Happens to Sprites From Previous Seasons

Previous-season sprites can't be brought into Treasure Hunters matches, but they still have two uses. First, the Sprite Garden game mode lets you interact with your old collection, so anything you gathered in earlier seasons remains accessible. Second, any sprite you mastered can be equipped as a decorative back bling style, letting you display your history with the feature even when its match abilities are retired.

In short: mastery pays off long after a sprite's competitive life ends, which makes finishing your collection each season the most efficient long-term strategy.
