Fortnite’s Gone Wild event has just added the Rare Fishy Sprite, a companion that can sharpen any match in Chapter 7 Season 3.
Locating the Fishy Sprite
Players encounter the Fishy Sprite through standard loot channels such as chests, supply drops, floor stacks, and sprite chests.
Water‑rich zones like Heatwave Harbor and Cluster Coast increase spawn chances thanks to hidden vaults and thematic drops.
Fishing with a rod also reveals the sprite in eligible bodies of water.
Unlocking and Using the Companion
Merely spotting the sprite does not grant permanent access; extraction is required.
- Take the sprite to a designated extraction point on the map.
- Use a portable extractor for quick retrieval.
Power‑Ups Explained
The Fishy Sprite ramps up swimming and on‑hit movement speed as it levels.
- Level 1–2: 125 % swim speed / 10 % movement speed.
- Level 2–5: 250 % swim speed / 20 % movement speed.
- Level 5–10: 300 % swim speed / 30 % movement speed.
- Level 10–20: 450 % swim speed / 40 % movement speed.
- Level 20+: 500 % swim speed / 50 % movement speed.
With a maximum 200 % swim boost, the sprite can accelerate traversal across Chapter 7’s expansive map.
Competitive Implications
Players who reach the upper tiers can pair the sprite’s swift water navigation with rapid movement after taking damage, turning positional advantage into swift eliminations.
