Fortnite Treasure Hunters (1 Nov) — What Epic Has Actually Posted

Epic named Treasure Hunters on 24 Oct 2026 with “11.1”, then posted a Fortnite × One Piece teaser. Override’s Battle Pass still ends 1 November 2026 ET. No hour, no island sheet, no shop list.

What Epic posted on 24 October

The official Fortnite account (@Fortnite) published a short teaser on 24 October 2026 captioned “The greatest adventure of all! 11.1”. The title card reads Treasure Hunters / The Greatest Adventure of All Time (Japanese on the card: トレジャーハンターズ). 11.1 is 1 November — the same calendar day Epic already prints on the Override Battle Pass page.

Hours later the same account posted a second clip captioned with straw-hat emojis. It ends on the Fortnite and One Piece logos together. That is a collab confirmation. It is not a character list, a shop row, or a Battle Pass page.

Last reviewed: 26 October 2026.

Dates that were already on Epic’s Battle Pass page

  • Override Battle Pass — ends 1 November 2026, Eastern Time. No hour. Official page: fortnite.com/battle-pass.
  • Fortnitemares 2026 — same calendar day.
  • This site’s clock uses a UTC placeholder on the countdown. US daylight saving time also ends on 1 November, so “evening of the 31st” vs “1 Nov ET” arguments are timezone math, not two different Epic dates.

When the client is in a queue, use Is Fortnite down? plus Epic’s own status.epicgames.com. Third-party ping maps do not get the queue.

Patch number, not a theme essay

On 13 October 2026, Epic staff on the Unreal Engine forums wrote that a fix was “targeted for v43.00 (November 1)”. That is the update after Override. It is a build number, not a loot table.

v42.40 (15 Oct) is still the last Override content patch: v42.40 notes.

What we are not filling in

Epic has not published, as of this review:

  • Whether Treasure Hunters is a full season or a shorter one (recap blogs calling it a “mini-season” are guessing from past November flips)
  • A Chapter 8 date
  • Island changes, named POIs, or a loot pool
  • A Treasure Hunters Battle Pass track or price
  • One Piece outfits, prices, or which page of a pass they sit on
  • A downtime hour

A pirate-chest landmark east of Sunken Shores is still scenery on the live map. We will not write a POI guide from a teaser.

Finish before the queue

None of this carries:

  1. Override Battle Pass — unclaimed free-track and paid pages lock. Cost is still 800 V-Bucks (or Crew): how much is the Battle Pass. XP plan: XP calculator.
  2. Null ranked styles — Champion / Elite / Unreal. Null guide.
  3. Jack-a-Nape — Fortnitemares quests. Free cosmetics.
  4. Sprite Mastery last page — Quack + Pixel Polli. Dust is not advertised as carrying.
  5. Jimothy — extract a Dumpster Dive Sprite. How-to.
  6. Admin Panel lobby codes. Never V-Bucks. Admin Panel.

If you panic-bought V-Bucks or a pass you cannot finish: refunds. If you have a card to burn before downtime: redeem a code.

FAQ

When does Fortnite Treasure Hunters start?

Epic’s teaser says 11.1. Epic’s Battle Pass page already said Override ends 1 November 2026, Eastern Time. No hour yet. Watch status the morning of.

Is Treasure Hunters “Chapter 7 Season 5”?

Not on the teaser. Epic named Treasure Hunters. We will use that name until they print a season number on the Battle Pass page.

Is the One Piece collab confirmed?

The logo pairing on the official Fortnite account is confirmed. Characters, prices, and whether it is shop vs pass are not.

Will my Override pass rewards carry?

Unclaimed tiers do not. Claimed-but-unopened rewards are a different Epic support case — check the Passes tab before you log off on the 31st.

Where should I sit during downtime?

Is Fortnite down? for Epic’s board vs your network, and the countdown for the calendar clock. Refresh those, not Twitter screenshots.
