All Sprites in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4: Complete Guide & Abilities

The companion system has returned to the island. Sprites are back again in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4, but this time they are sporting a retro, pixel-y gamer aesthetic to perfectly coincide with the theme of the “Override” season. Just like in the previous update, these helpful companions can be discovered scattered around the battle royale map. Equipping them provides unique bonus effects and passive buffs that can give you the critical edge needed to secure that sweet Victory Royale.

However, Epic Games has introduced a new mechanical twist to finding them this season. In addition to looting them from standard chests, sprites can now be unlocked through a new system called cheat codes. These arrow-key sequences are hidden in various locations across the map, rewarding observant players who take the time to explore and input the correct codes. Here is everything you need to know about finding, extracting, and utilizing all the new Sprites in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4.

How Sprite Extraction and Dust Mechanics Work

Finding a sprite is only half the battle; keeping it requires effort. You will need to find these companions, level them up through gameplay, and successfully extract them if you want to carry them over and use them in your future matches. You can secure your sprites using either the massive, stationary extractors located at major POIs around the map or by utilizing portable extractors found in your gizmo inventory.

Once a sprite is safely extracted, it is added to your permanent collection. If you happen to be eliminated and lose a sprite during a match, you can re-summon it in the pre-game lobby using a currency called Sprite Dust. You earn this valuable Sprite Dust simply by repeatedly extracting sprites during your games. Pro Tip: We strongly recommend utilizing the admin panel lobby codes available online to get a massive jumpstart on collecting Sprite Dust and unlocking some of the rarer sprite variations right out of the gate.

For players wondering about their old companions, the sprites from Chapter 7 Season 3 are unfortunately not usable in the standard battle royale modes this season. However, your collection is not lost. You can interact with your previous companions in a dedicated, relaxing “Sprite Garden” game mode. Furthermore, veteran players can equip last season’s sprites as cosmetic customization options via the Sprite Mastery Pod back bling and The Guardian outfit.

All Sprites in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4: 11 New Sprites and Their Abilities

Currently, there are 11 distinct types of sprites available to collect in the “Override” update. Furthermore, several of these base companions feature extremely rare variations that are much harder to track down. These variants provide additive, powerful passive effects on top of their base abilities. For example, finding a Gold Variant grants a permanent 3x bonus XP multiplier from all eliminations, while the Cheat Master Variant ensures that all inputs are automatically correct when attempting to enter cheat codes found in the world.

Assuming this season follows the content pipeline of the last, we can expect even more variants and crossovers to be released as the weeks progress. Below is the complete list of all the base Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 Sprites currently available and the specific combat advantages they provide:

  • 8-Bit: Resembling a mean red handheld gaming device, this sprite guarantees an 8-Bit Shotgun drops from your very first chest and provides a continuous score multiplier when using it.
  • Jonesy: Styled as a pixelated Jonesy wearing a trench coat and sunglasses, this companion passively recovers a portion of your health or shields after a short delay upon taking enemy damage.
  • Adventure: Appearing as a yellow figure with an eyepatch and a green hood, this sprite automatically upgrades the rarity of a random item in your inventory every time it levels up.
  • Bush: Modeled after the beloved Bushranger outfit, this sprite spawns a tactical bush around you after a set duration. At its maximum level, it instantly grants a bush upon scoring an elimination.
  • Sonic: In a massive crossover, this Sonic the Hedgehog sprite drastically increases your base sprinting speed. Gotta go fast!
  • Tails: Based on Sonic’s famous sidekick, this companion grants the player the ability to hover mid-air, allowing for unique traversal and tactical verticality.
  • Shadow: Featuring Shadow the Hedgehog, this aggressive sprite slowly but automatically reloads all weapons in your inventory over time, even when they are holstered.
  • Killswitch: Taking the form of a black and green pixelated assassin, this sprite allows you to enter a slow-motion “hangtime” while airborne, significantly improving your weapon accuracy while jumping.
  • Jackrabbit: Appearing as a green rabbit sporting a red headband, this agile companion grants the highly coveted ability to perform a double jump while in midair.
  • Crown: Shaped like a red sprite adorned with a golden llama crown, this companion grants extra Crown Wins upon securing a Victory Royale. Note: This unique sprite can only be leveled up by winning matches.
  • Klombo: Modeled after the fan-favorite magenta dinosaur, this sprite grants random loot items every time it levels up. It features a unique progression system and can only be leveled up by consuming items that grant health or shields.
