The Burnt Peanut Sprite is an option unlike any other in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3, and we can find it while exploring the island map. This is the only Sprite that’s based on a real-life person, and we can find it to add to our existing collection. This guide will help in your search if you haven’t already managed to find him. Table of contentsHow to obtain the Burnt Peanut Sprite in FortniteBurnt Peanut Sprite buff explained in Fortnitehttps://embeds.beehiiv.com/a8d62108-86ed-4039-bf49-44877ba62c15 How to obtain the Burnt Peanut Sprite in Fortnite The only way to get the Burnt Peanut Sprite is to open chests. Typically, Sprites can be found in open areas of the map. You can also find them around Extraction Sites. However, the same rule doesn’t apply for the Burnt Peanut Sprite. Based on the available information on social media, there’s a 1.5% chance to get this specific Sprite when you open a chest. Statistically, there’s one chance to get him if you open 67 chests. In simple words, you’ll need to get extremely lucky to find him. Image via Epic If you manage to find the Sprite, your first task is to look for an Extraction Site. While extracting Sprites in general is very rewarding, the incentive rises in this case. Since the Burnt Peanut Sprite is so rare, you’ll lose it if you die. Once you manage to extract it, the Sprite will be added to your collection. You can then spawn it as long as you have the necessary Sprite Dust. Burnt Peanut Sprite buff explained in Fortnite The Burnt Peanut Sprite has one of the strongest buffs in the game. It will help you get more loot from eliminations. The base chance of finding the extra loot is at 20%, but it goes up by 10% every time you level up. If you manage to reach the max level, you’ll have chance to get 60% extra loot from eliminations, with a 10% modifier for it to be a Mythic item. However, it’s not the only Sprite that you can find in the game. There are plenty of options available, with each having a unique in-game ability. You can always look to find something that suits your gameplay the most. /wp-content/themes/destructoid2025/assets/img/icons/likes-off.png0 The post How to get the Burnt Peanut Sprite in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 appeared first on Destructoid.

There are plenty of different Sprites to find in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3, but some of them are quite rare. Every Sprite has a powerful in-game ability that goes above their cuteness. Thankfully, the community has come up with an easy way to trade for variants that might be missing in your collection. Disclaimer: There’s no official way to trade for Sprites. The method is community-sourced. How to trade Sprites with other players in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3https://embeds.beehiiv.com/a8d62108-86ed-4039-bf49-44877ba62c15 First, we will have to find a community where we can find other players also looking to trade their Sprites. The best option is the Sprite Trading HQ Discord server, which has already been crowded by many players like me. Next, go do the Sprite Trading tab (if you have joined the server). Share which Sprite you want to trade and what you would like to get in return. Alternatively, you can also make a direct offer to someone if it’s of mutual interest. Screenshot by Destructoid Once a trade has been established, equip the Sprite you wish to trade and invite them to your lobby. For this method, it’s best to use a bot lobby to avoid getting killed by other players. Begin a round, drop from the bus, and reach the island. Next, both of you will need to find a second Sprite in the open. This step is important since you need to have an extra Sprite in your collection. Once you find the extra Sprite, switch the one you have in your backpack. Now, you can drop the Sprite you want to trade. Screenshot by Destructoid Once done, both of you will have to pick up the Sprite you were looking for. Then, head to the Extraction Site and place the Sprites over there. Once the extraction is complete, the new Sprites will be added to your collection. When you trade a Sprite, you lose it only temporarily. Screenshot by Destructoid It will remain in your collection, and you can equip it by spending the necessary Sprite Dust. However, the new one that you traded for will also be available in your collection. That’s how easy it is to trade and get every available Sprite in Fortnite. /wp-content/themes/destructoid2025/assets/img/icons/likes-off.png0 The post How to trade Sprites in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 appeared first on Destructoid.

Chapter 7 Season 3 in Fortnite has introduced three new bosses to defeat, and we can find them in different locations on the map. Just like the previous season, there is no fixed spot. However, it’s important to figure out the strategy you want to adopt against them.

I have marked spots in the image above where I have encountered bosses. However, there’s no guarantee that you’ll find them in the same spots.

Hence, finding the bosses is a matter of luck. However, keep exploring the island, and you will manage to eventually find them.

The Duck Race is one of many minigames to complete in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3, and you can get plenty of rewards without having to do much. Once you’re at the correct location, you can trigger the race to watch the ducks race one another. Wins and losses don’t matter since you’ll get valuable loot for your effort, which might also include the Mythic Shotgun. How to complete the Duck Race in Fortnite First, we have to reach the location of the race. The ducks are located towards the northern edges of Heatwave Harbor. If you reach the marked spot on the image below, you’ll find a bridge. Activate the switch to begin the race. [Hidden Content] Screenshot by Destructoid This will then drop the ducks, and they will begin their race. Follow the ducks, and they will collide with four boxes. While they gain speed, the collision will drop loot for you to keep. There will be three sets of boxes, so you need to follow the ducks to the end. Screenshot by Destructoid Once the race ends, the ducks will drop the best set of rewards. This typically includes Chug *****, which is great when it comes to healing yourself. However, you’ll also have a high chance of getting the Mythic Striker Pump shotgun. Screenshot by Destructoid This isn’t a guaranteed drop, but you’ll still get some wonderful items nevertheless. The shotgun does an incredible amount of damage at close range, so it’s definitely worth triggering the race if you can. The area of the race will be highly contested, so prepare yourself accordingly. I have had other players trying to interfere with the race and loot the items. Find some healing items and strong guns before starting the race. /wp-content/themes/destructoid2025/assets/img/icons/likes-off.png0 The post How to complete the Duck Race in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 and get the Mythic Striker Pump Shotgun appeared first on Destructoid.

Dungeons and Dragons is a game that spans many time periods, both real and fantastical. One could spend their whole campaign in a classic medieval town, only to end up in the Lovecraftian sci-fi nightmare of Nautiloid. The fantasy elements of D&D is what makes it so versatile, and I adore when settings play with real-life events through that magical lens.

At IGN Live Saturday, attendees got a first look at a new trailer for the PowerWash Simulator 2: Star Wars Pack DLC. When George Lucas created Star Wars, one of the things that stood out about it compared to other sci-fi movies of its era was the lived in aesthetic, which included the kind of dirt and grime rarely seen up until that point in a genre that usually went for clean and pristine. But as much as things can be dirty in Star Wars, sometimes you gotta take a look at your filthy Gonk droid and realize it's time to wash that sucker! In this Star Wars take on PowerWash Simulator 2, players will play as a class five labor droid, P0-W2. The new trailer provides more glimpses of the different iconic locations and vehicles featured, all pulled from the original trilogy era that the PowerWash Simulator 2: Star Wars Pack is set in, including the Lars Homestead, Chalmun's Cantina, X-Wing fighters, AT-ATs, and the bridge of a Super Star Destroyer... And trust me, you are gonna want to make that bridge look good before Lord Vader comes back and starts Force choking you. The Star Wars Pack for PowerWash Simulator 2 will be available on PlayStation 5 (PS5), PlayStation 5 Pro (PS5 Pro), PC, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2 on July 16, 2026. Be sure to keep up with everything going on at IGN Live 2026. You can check the full schedule to see what else is coming up across games, movies, TV, streaming, and more. View the full article

A placeholder listing for a PS5 version of Gears of War: E-Day has appeared on Walmart's website less than 24 hours before Microsoft's big 2026 Xbox Games Showcase. Reddit user Laughing__Man_ was one of the first to share the discovery when they posted a link for a "Gears: E-Day Standard Edition" available for PlayStation 5 via Walmart.com late yesterday. That link has now been scrubbed of any mention of Microsoft's Gears of War prequel, but IGN was able to visit the link before it was taken down. In addition to mentions of a PS5 version of Gears of War: E-Day, the page featured a price of $99.99 for the standard edition while describing its genre as "first-person shooter" with a pending ESRB rating. Three bullet points – Placeholder 1, TBD 2, and TBD 3 – could also be seen. In other words, just about every piece of text on the Walmart listing suggests the page was a placeholder posted in error, but its existence still has fans scratching their heads. Gears of War: E-Day was announced in 2024 with the expectation that it would eventually launch for PC and Xbox Series X | S – not PS5. Winds have shifted through the last few years, though, leading fans to second-guess Microsoft's exclusivity strategy. As some games, including Halo: Campaign Evolved, trickle onto Sony's rival console, many have believed the new Gears of War game would follow suit, and the appearance of the retailer's listing will only cause those rumors to heat up. However, Microsoft has seemingly walked back some of that messaging recently. While the appearance of PS5 versions of titles like Gears of War: Reloaded had many believing Microsoft was quickly moving away from exclusives altogether, newly appointed CEO Asha Sharma has signaled a potential change of plans. A mission statement emailed to Xbox staff in April of this year also promised leadership would "reevaluate" the company's approach to exclusivity. One month later, chief content officer Matt Booty warned the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase would still feature competing logos. Sharma eventually called the decision to highlight other platforms "a miss," promising that discussions about how to "adjust for future Xbox shows" were happening behind the scenes. Just days ago, Sharma returned to the exclusivity topic when she acknowledged that a platform "must have exclusive content and services" during a conversation with Bloomberg. It's hard to say how much influence this newfound appreciation for exclusive games could have on games like Gears of War: E-Day, which has been in development for years. Meanwhile, just as the Walmart listing had fans believing a PS5 version could soon be announced, conflicting rumors suggesting that a PlayStation version was recently canceled have emerged. They originate from Giant Bomb host Jeff Grubb, who said that "Gears of War: E-Day was going to be on PS5" but is "not anymore" following an internal decision that "just got made." So, the Gears of War: E-Day PS5 listing could be our first hint at a PlayStation version of the game…or it could mean absolutely nothing. As leaks and rumors consume an increasingly busy Summer Game Fest, it's probably best players keep expectations in check until we hear from a more official source. We'll at least know much more about the upcoming prequel game when the Gears of War: E-Day Direct follows the Xbox Games Showcase 2026 presentation later today. For more on the future of Gears of War, Microsoft, and Xbox, you can read about the all-caps rebrand Sharma revealed in May. You can also read about the "hard choices" she warned about a few weeks ago, as well as the Game Pass price cuts that arrived in April. Michael Cripe is a freelance writer with IGN.
