Epic Games today launched the Design A Sprite contest, giving players a chance to see their own artwork featured as a new Fortnite Sprite in Chapter 7 Season 3 and pocket a $2,500 reward.
How the Contest Works
Eligibility is open to anyone who submits a brand‑new sprite design between June 17, 2026, 9 a.m. ET and July 1, 2026, 11:59 p.m. ET. Epic will review every entry and announce three winners once the deadline closes.
Submission routes are straightforward. Post your original artwork on X, Instagram, or TikTok using the hashtag #DesignASprite. On Reddit, upload your entry to the official community page at r/FortniteBR, selecting the Design A Sprite flair.
What’s In It for the Community?
The accepted sprites will be added to the expanding roster of sprites that drop throughout Chapter 7 Season 3. Epic hints that standout concepts may even spawn special variations, such as the whimsical Gummy Sprite.
Beyond the in‑game honor, each of the three winning designs will receive a $2,500 cash prize. “Sprites are everywhere, with more dropping all throughout the season,” Epic explained in its blog post announcing the competition, urging players to showcase their best ideas.
Why This Matters to Fortnite Fans
The platform has a history of curating community‑generated cosmetics, from skins to emotes. This contest provides a direct pipeline for passionate creators to see their dreams woven into the Island’s lore, turning independent projects into official fan‑made content.
