Fortnite Treasure Hunters Brings One Piece on 1 November

Fortnite's Treasure Hunters mini-season starts on Sunday 1 November 2026, bringing One Piece powers, a new 80-player island called Crossbones Isle and a weekly rotation of captains to Battle Royale. Epic Games says the first Captain's Day kicks off with the season at 9:00 am ET, which is 14:00 UTC, and the mini-season builds to a Chapter 7 end event on Saturday 5 December.

One timing detail is easy to miss: US clocks go back an hour at 2:00 am on 1 November, so Epic's 9:00 am ET is Eastern Standard Time. That puts it at 14:00 UTC, 14:00 GMT in the UK and 7:30 pm IST in India.

What's in Treasure Hunters

According to Epic's announcement, players launch across Crossbones Isle from cannons and can visit two locations from One Piece, Arlong Park and Windmill Village. One Piece abilities include Luffy's Gum-Gum Fruit and Zoro's Three Sword Style. A$AP Rocky gets his own battleship point of interest, the $.$. Rocky, along with a Shock Rocket weapon.

Each week a new captain arrives with a crew and a point of interest. The Straw Hats and A$AP Rocky lead the first wave, followed by Lil Uzi Vert, Cap'n Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto. Epic also teases a mega chest belonging to a Captain X, without saying what's inside.

The Battle Pass features Portgas D. Ace and Nico Robin, plus new anime-style looks for Jonesy, Cuddle Team Leader and Charlotte. Gifting the pass to a friend gives both of you a bonus Dark Kawaii Team Leader outfit style. Through the season, Mastery Mondays add Captain's weapons at the start of every match, and Treasure Hours Sundays bring boosted drops.
