The mini-season of Fortnite “Treasure Hunters” introduces “Treasure Hour,” a special event designed to provide players with enhanced opportunities to find rare items. This initiative takes on the dynamics of the previous season’s (Chapter 7 Season 4) “Power Hours,” but shifts its weekly cadence. While Power Hours were dedicated to a specific timeline, Treasure Hour now aligns with a schedule that wraps up each week before the arrival of new character figures (Captain) on the Island, settling on Sundays starting next month.
The Treasure Hour event is closely linked to the hunt for the “Pirate Shop Access Token,” an extremely rare item that grants free access to the entire Item Shop for 14 days. The token, valued at hundreds of dollars in equivalent V-Bucks, has triggered real frenzy among the player community, many trying to obtain it through legitimate game mechanics or, contrary to Epic Games' Terms and Conditions, via account selling and automated farming services (AFK). However, official details regarding improved drop chances for this specific token remain uncertain in public communications until direct confirmation from developers.
The official schedule for the first Treasure Hour sessions includes Sunday and starting next Saturday. Sunday will host a standard Treasure Hour event, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM ET. Next Sunday will feature a new thematic name, likely related to a collaboration or character, although specific details have not yet been revealed.
