Fortnite Treasure Hunters starts November 1 on Crossbones Isle — Ace and Robin lead the Battle Pass
Epic’s Oct 30 news post dates the mini-season November 1. 80-player Crossbones Isle, One Piece powers, Captain’s Days at 9 a.m. ET. No downtime hour is printed.

Epic dated a Treasure Hunters news post October 30. The first line is the calendar: “On November 1, the hunt begins.” That is Sunday. The Override Battle Pass page, checked today, still prints “Ends November 1, 2026 Eastern Time.” This desk already has the Final Spritemare send-off through Saturday. This brief is the next season, not a recap of that event.
What Epic printed about the island
- A new 80-player island named Crossbones Isle. Cannons launch you across it.
- One Piece POIs named on the page: Arlong Park and Windmill Village. Jump in as Luffy with the Gum-Gum Fruit, or use Zoro’s Three Sword Style. Epic’s wording is “and more.”
- A$AP Rocky gets a battleship POI Epic styles “$.$. Rocky,” plus A$AP Rocky’s Shock Rocket.
- Captain X’s mega chest is on the island. Epic does not say what is inside.
Each week a new captain arrives in Battle Royale with a crew and a POI. Epic’s order: the Straw Hats and A$AP Rocky lead, then Lil Uzi Vert, then Cap’n Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto. Shacknews, working from an Epic press release the same day, also calls Treasure Hunters a mini-season.
Battle Pass and Shop, as written
Battle Pass: Portgas D. Ace and Nico Robin, plus new anime looks for Jonesy, Cuddle Team Leader, and Charlotte. Gift the pass to a friend and both of you get a Dark Kawaii Team Leader Outfit style. Epic does not print a V-Bucks price or a tier count on that page.
| Date on Epic’s post | Shop drop | Clock printed? |
|---|---|---|
| Season launch (November 1) | Luffy, Nami, Usopp | No hour |
| November 5 | A$AP Rocky | 7 p.m. ET |
| November 7 | Zoro, Sanji, Chopper Sidekick | No hour |
| November 12 | Lil Uzi Vert | No hour |
| November 13 | Buggy | No hour |
| November 14 | Kasane Teto and Cap’n Hatsune Miku | No hour |
The clocks Epic actually printed
Captain’s Days drop new weapons, Sprites, and more. The first “kicks off with the Season on November 1 at 9 AM ET,” then November 7, 12, 14, and 21. Mastery Mondays and Treasure Hours Sundays run through the season: Captain’s weapons at the start of every match, boosted drops, “and more.” Epic also says keep Saturday, December 5 open for a Chapter 7 end event. That is an event date, not a Battle Pass end line.
