Fortnite Power Hour Today: Shinier Hours Start Times
Fortnite Shinier Hours starts at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET on July 25, 2026. If you are confused about the name, you aren’t alone. Yes, last week was called “Shiny Hours,” and this week it’s “Shinier Hours.” Like previous events, the Fortnite Power Hour today will be hosted in two sessions.
The second Fortnite Power Hour today starts at 6 PM PT / 9 PM ET. So, if you miss out on the early morning session, don’t panic! However, trying to figure out when Fortnite Shinier Hours goes live in your specific region can get confusing pretty quickly. For your convenience, we have created an easy-to-read table below with start times for every major region.
Fortnite Shiny Hours Schedule for Every Region
Fortnite Power Hour #1 (July 25)
Fortnite Power Hour #2 (July 25)
All Fortnite Power Hour Rewards and Bonuses
The Fortnite Power Hour today will feature greatly boosted rates for the Batman Sprite, Seven Sprite, and rare Pollo Sprite. This is a pretty big deal, as previously, the Pollo Sprite could only be obtained through trading. Well, today is your best chance yet to unlock him!
The Fortnite Shinier Hours event won’t just feature boosted Fortnite Sprite rates, though, as it will also include rewards and gameplay changes. For example, the Fortnite Shinier Hours event will feature “big head mode” activated, for reasons.
Here is everything included in the Power Hour today:
- Batman, Pollo, Seven, and Air Sprites are far more common—making this the perfect time to extract them if you haven’t already.
- Gold, Gummy, Galaxy, and Holofoil variants appear more often than during last weekend’s event, with an extra boost for the four Sprites above.
- You’re twice as likely to find a Sprite in regular Chests.
All Featured Sprites in Fortnite Shinier Hours
The Fortnite Power Hour today will largely focus on a handful of specific Sprites, such as Batman and Pollo. You can technically find any released Fortnite Sprite during the event; however, these specific collectibles will have “greatly” increased spawn rates.
Here are the featured Sprites in the Fortnite Power Hour today:
How Long Does Fortnite Power Hour Last?
The Fortnite Power Hour today lasts two hours per session. Epic Games will host two Shinier Hours sessions on July 25, giving players four total hours to participate. However, you don’t need to attend both sessions, as the same bonuses and boosted Sprite spawn rates should be available during each one.
Despite Fortnite Cube Sprites recently making their debut, they are missing from this week’s Power Hour. Instead, Epic Games is focusing on Batman, Seven, Air, and Pollo Sprites, alongside increased rates for Gold, Gummy, Galaxy, and Holofoil variants. This makes Shinier Hours one of the best opportunities yet to catch up on rare Sprite Variants you may have missed during previous Fortnite events.
