Fortnite Override Season 4 Overhauls the Map, Sprites, and Loot with Crossovers

Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4, dubbed Override, launches Aug 20 with a map overhaul (Green Hill Zone, Reality's Reign, Stone Sanctum, and a redesigned Spire) and a new Sprite system featuring Sonic, Tails, Shadow and more, plus a Sprite Garden to track them. The loot pool expands with new items (Sonic Power Sneakers, Mega Buster, 8-Bit Shotgun, Midas’ Masterpiece, Tetris Rift, 1-Up Token, God Mode Llama) and returns classic weapons.

Epic teases crossovers with Sonic, Pac-Man, Mega Man, Tetris, Cyberpunk 2077, Crash Bandicoot and Persona, while the Battle Pass unlocks Sonic immediately and offers launch bonuses and gifting rewards, plus new ranked rewards.
