The Fortnite Team

The v24.10 April 5 hotfix brings the return of the Scurvy Shoals Venture Season! Grab your gear and get ready for the start of the Season at 8 PM ET on April 5. 

Also with this hotfix, Dungeons return and Miss Bunny Penny comes back to the Event and Weekly Store!

Scurvy Shoals Venture Season Returns

Get ready for a high seas venture: the Scurvy Shoals Venture Season sails on from April 5 at 8 PM ET to June 21, 2023, at June 21 8 PM ET. In addition to the treasure-filled Pirate Llamas, here’s what to expect:

Bouncy Husks

Rock the boat with the Bouncy Husks modifier! With this modifier, Husks, Huskies, and Mist Monsters will all have increased Health, but to your fortune, they’ll all be more susceptible to knockbacks, especially from ranged and melee weapons. Send those Husks back into the Storm from whence they came!

Super Treasure 

Loot like a real pirate. With the Super Treasure modifier, Treasure Chests filled with valuable loot will periodically drop from enemies you defeat. Rough sailing makes for strong Commanders: the tougher the enemy you defeat, the more likely a Treasure Chest will drop from it.
