Pirate Token Power Hour & Treasure Hours: Times and What's Boosted
Short answer
There is no Pirate Token power hour yet. Dataminer HYPEX says Pirate Shop Power Hours are coming later this season, but Epic hasn't announced one. What Epic has confirmed is Treasure Hours every Saturday, with boosted drops and Captain's weapons in every match. The next one is Saturday, Nov 7, in two sessions. Epic hasn't said whether Treasure Hours touch the Pirate Token's odds.
Next Treasure Hours
| Session | Eastern Time (ET) | Your time |
|---|---|---|
| Fortune Treasure Hours · 1st session | Sat Nov 7, 2–4 PM | — |
| Fortune Treasure Hours · 2nd session | Sat Nov 7, 9–11 PM | — |

Treasure Hours vs. Pirate Shop Power Hour
The two names get mixed up in posts and videos. They are not the same thing, and only one has an official schedule.
| Treasure Hours | Pirate Shop Power Hour | |
|---|---|---|
| Who says so | Epic Official season post and Fortnite Status | Dataminer HYPEX, Nov 4 |
| When | Every Saturday this season. Next: Nov 7, 2–4 PM and 9–11 PM ET | "Later this season." No date |
| What's boosted | Captain's weapons at the start of every match, boosted drops "and more". Epic lists these for Treasure Hours and Mastery Mondays together | HYPEX expects a higher spawn chance for the token for an hour or two |
| Pirate Token odds | Not stated Epic's post doesn't mention Pirate Shop Access | Unconfirmed Epic hasn't said how much the odds would go up (VICE) |
Beebom expects Treasure Hours to work like the Power Hours from Chapter 7 Season 4 (Override), when the drop rate for certain items and Sprites was raised on weekends. It thinks the token may get a small boost too, but says it can't be certain. We'll update this page as soon as Epic says either way.
What a boost would really mean
Say your squad of four opens 8 chests each per match and fits 5 matches into a two-hour session. That's 160 chests that count for everyone. Using the 1 in 700,000 per chest that players quote (Epic has never confirmed a rate):
| Odds during the session | Squad, 160 chests | Solo, 40 chests |
|---|---|---|
| Normal (1 in 700,000) | about 0.02% | about 0.006% |
| Doubled | about 0.05% | about 0.01% |
| Tripled | about 0.07% | about 0.02% |
Even a tripled rate leaves one session far below a month of steady play: the same squad playing 10 matches a day for 30 days gets about 1.4% at the normal rate. A power hour is worth showing up for, not worth skipping sleep for. Run your own numbers in the odds calculator by changing the "1 in" value.
The rest of the weekly schedule
- Captain's Days: new weapons, Sprites and more drop on the map on Nov 1 (9 AM ET), Nov 8, Nov 12, Nov 15 and Nov 22 (Epic). Fortnite Status says Treasure Hours now round out each week "before a new Captain arrives Sunday".
- Mastery Mondays: every Monday this season, with the same Captain's weapons and boosted drops Epic lists for Treasure Hours. Fortnite news account Llamalaxy lists double Sprite XP and Sprite Dust and more Sprite Chests and Wanted Posters, starting at 9 AM ET. Sprite and Wanted Poster chests can both roll the token, so Mondays are a decent day to grind. More on which chests count on our modes page.
- Dec 5: Epic says to keep Saturday, December 5, open for the Chapter 7 end event. Activate a 2026 token before Dec 15, 7 PM ET.
"Power hour trackers" and token finders
Google's search suggestions now include token trackers, finders, macros, Discord servers and accounts for sale. Epic's answer on Nov 3: "Buying an account or using fake tools is a scam." It added that every player has an equal opportunity to find Pirate Shop Access. No tool can see when or where the token will drop. More rumors are checked on our myths page.
Questions players ask
Is there a Pirate Token power hour in Fortnite?
Not yet. HYPEX reported on Nov 4 that Pirate Shop Power Hours are coming later this season, but Epic hasn't announced a schedule or how much the odds would go up.
When are Fortnite Treasure Hours?
Every Saturday during Treasure Hunters. The next one, Fortune Treasure Hours, runs Nov 7 from 2 to 4 PM ET and from 9 to 11 PM ET. See the table above for your local time.
Do Treasure Hours boost the Pirate Token drop rate?
Epic hasn't said. Its post lists Captain's weapons and boosted drops, but never mentions Pirate Shop Access. Treat any claim of better token odds as a guess.
How much would a power hour help?
Less than it sounds. A squad opening 160 chests in two hours goes from about 0.02% to about 0.05% if the rate doubles. See the math.
Is a power hour tracker or token finder real?
No. Epic says buying an account or using fake tools is a scam, and every player has an equal chance.
