🤾 Fortnite disabled throwing or dropping Sprites into the extraction crate to extract them, to prevent an issue where they would be considered Water Sprites. To extract a Sprite, walk up to the crate and hit the button to Extract it rather than dropping or throwing it in.

💦➡️🌱 While Fortnite work to fix an issue with Water Sprites not healing you in water, they’ve replaced its ability with Earth Sprite’s “chance to find additional rare items when opening chests.”

Snack Time, sprites! Quack Snacks have been re-enabled 🦆😋

✨ Sprite seekers! Page 2 of the Sprite Mastery progression track unlocks tomorrow, and you’ll automatically receive any rewards you’re eligible for from your mastered Sprites.

Holofoil and Gem Sprites were incorrectly available via the Sprite Hunt rift anomaly. If you collected these Sprites ahead of their release, they'll be temporarily disabled in your inventory and will be unable to bring them into a match or resummon them until these Sprite variants are released.

🆕 Collect five new Sprites in Battle Royale and revisit the future in Fortnite OG Season 9. ⏰ Downtime for v41.10 begins at 4 AM ET (8 AM UTC) with matchmaking ending shortly beforehand. status.epicgames.com

Sprite buffs incoming! ✨ 🌌 Galaxy Sprites now give more Ammo from all sources 🍬 Gummy Sprites now give more Sprite Dust upon extraction

Fortnite has made several gameplay adjustments:

⚠️ To prevent an issue, Fortnite has temporarily disabled Sprite Throwing. If you want to drop a Sprite, you can open your inventory and drop it.

⏫ Fortnite fixed an issue where players could lose Sprite Dust when spectating your squad and rebooting. To account for this error, they’re extending this Mastery Monday an additional 24 hours so you can earn more Sprite Dust and Sprite XP!

🛠️ To resolve a wider issue on Mobile where the “Tap Anywhere” fire mode could prevent touch buttons from responding, Fortnite temporarily reverted the recent Turbo Build fixes to get touch input working properly again.

A lot of changes that I don't have time to split into different messages.

To prevent an issue that caused players to crash, Fortnite has temporarily disabled the ‘follow’ ability of the Developer Profile device in UEFN and Creative. They are actively working on a fix now. Please keep in mind this feature will be disabled in v41.10.
