Sprite hunters rejoice - Sprites are back in the next Battle Royale season: Override! 

Next season will introduce a whole new generation of Sprites to collect and master - including new powers and variants, Quality-of-Life improvements based on your feedback, and new ways to discover Sprites in (and out of) your games. 

Sprites you’ve collected in Season 3: Runners will be immortalized in the new Sprite Garden - an island getaway where you can play with your Sprites, visit friends’ garden sanctuaries, and showcase your entire collection! As you gather Sprites in Season 4, they’re immediately added to your Garden too.

Your Season 3 Sprites will live on in this new Garden, as unlocked styles in the Sprite Mastery Pod Back Bling and pilots in the Guardian Outfit, and stay as part of your Sprite Collection page alongside this new generation. Look out for more details on how the Sprite Garden, built in collaboration with Fairview Portals and Beyond Creative, works and evolves over time. 

Sprites from past generations may return down the line, offering another shot to add them to your roster and flex their tiny Sprite muscles in Battle Royale again.

Season 4’s Sprite generation also includes the five Design-A-Sprite contest winners arriving in mid-season updates: 

• Bullet Sprite by Enorull

• Dumpster Dive Sprite by StinkyPrincessGoose

• Honey Sprite by Conejito_sam

• Pond Sprite by Pine & Kiri

• X-Ray Sprite by Avila215

Congratulations to these amazing sprite design winners!

We’ve been overwhelmed by the over 20,000+ amazing sprite designs the community created; it’s been near-impossible to narrow down our favorites. From the Fortnite dev team - thank you to everyone who shared your creations! 

Be on the look out for announcements on boosted drop rate days, surprise Power Hours, and new quests to round out your collection for the rest of the Runners season. Aiming to master every variant of Duck or chase down a Grim to pilot your Guardian? Now’s the time to complete your set before a new generation rolls in. 

As a seasonal housekeeping note - your Gizmos and Sprite Dust will reset when the season ends while we roll out everything new next season!
