Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 launched on May 27, 2026, following the Shattered live event that concluded Chapter 7 Season 2. The new season introduced the Runners branding, the Sprite companion system, and a refreshed Shattered Coast map.

Sprites are collectible companions introduced as the central mechanic of Chapter 7 Season 3. There are 10 Sprites across four rarity tiers (Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythic), each granting a unique passive ability. You find Sprites on the island, carry them to an Extraction Site, and bank them to add them permanently to your collection. Extracted Sprites can be summoned at the start of future matches using Sprite Dust.

No, Battle Pass progress does not carry over between seasons. Any unclaimed rewards from the current Battle Pass will be lost when the season ends. Make sure to claim all your rewards before August 19, 2026.

The Fortnite Battle Pass costs 800 V-Bucks and earns back exactly 800 V-Bucks upon full completion. This means the Battle Pass is self-sustaining: if you finish it, you earn enough to buy the next one. There are no longer bonus V-Bucks in the Bonus Rewards section.
