This is the first big content update since Override launched on August 20. Here is everything confirmed in the Fortnite v42.10 update so far, including new Sprite powers, Loot Hack changes, and what is coming to OG Season X. Fortnite v42.10 Update Release Time and Downtime Epic Games began the v42.10 downtime at 4 AM ET (8 AM UTC) on September 3. Matchmaking was disabled 30 minutes before that. Epic's official status page listed the maintenance window as running until roughly 6 AM ET, though large updates can sometimes take longer to reach every platform. This patch is Chapter 7 Season 4's first major update since the Override season began on August 20, 2026. New Fortnite Sprites Added on September 3 Epic Games added 25 new Sprites to Fortnite in the v42.10 update. They do not become unlockable during the main server downtime. Instead, they arrive with the daily Sprite reset at 6 AM PT, which is 9 AM ET. Only 4 of the 25 Sprites are entirely new types. The rest are Cheat Master, Gold, and Loot Hacker variants of existing or new Sprites. New SpritePowerX-Ray SpritePeriodically marks nearby enemies.
