Fortnite Treasure Hours: Will One Piece Token Drop Rates Increase?

Fortnite is preparing new special events that could change the hunt for the coveted One Piece token. Epic Games has confirmed the so-called Treasure Hours, events that will offer improved loot during the Treasure Hunters season. However, one important question remains: will these events also increase the chances of obtaining free access to the Pirate Shop?

Since the Fortnite Treasure Hunters season began on November 1, 2026, thousands of players have been searching for one of the rarest rewards ever offered in Battle Royale: Pirate Shop Access, a token that allows players to claim eligible skins and other cosmetics without spending V-Bucks for 14 days.

The reward has an unknown drop rate, and many players have spent countless matches trying to obtain it. Now, the upcoming special events of the season have raised expectations, especially after reports emerged about the so-called Power Hours, which could temporarily make finding the token easier.

What Are Fortnite's Treasure Hours?

Treasure Hours, officially referred to as Treasure Hours Sundays, are events announced by Epic Games for the Treasure Hunters season.

In its official announcement on October 30, the developer explained that special activities would take place on Mondays and Sundays throughout the season.

These events will include Mastery Mondays and Treasure Hours Sundays, featuring benefits such as Captain weapons appearing at the beginning of matches and improvements to supply drops.

The goal is to introduce temporary changes to Battle Royale matches, offering different opportunities to obtain equipment and rewards throughout the season.

However, Epic has not yet specified all the benefits of each event or explained whether Pirate Shop Access will be among the rewards with increased drop rates.

Will Treasure Hours Increase the Chances of Getting the One Piece Token?

This is the question that has generated the most interest among players.

On November 4, 2026, well-known Fortnite leaker HYPEX shared information about the possible arrival of Power Hours related to the Pirate Shop Access token.

According to the post, these events could temporarily increase the chances of finding the reward, possibly during one- or two-hour windows.

The information was reported by outlets such as VICE, which clarified that the supposed increase in drop rates is HYPEX's interpretation and has not been officially confirmed by Epic Games.

For now, there is no confirmation that these possible Power Hours are exactly the same event as Treasure Hours Sundays. No specific increase in the token's drop rate has been officially announced either.

What has been confirmed is that Fortnite will feature events with improved loot throughout the season, giving players new incentives to participate.

When Do Treasure Hours Begin, and What Time Will They Take Place in Mexico?

Epic Games announced that Treasure Hours Sundays will take place during the Treasure Hunters season, but it has not yet published a complete schedule with starting and ending times.

The next Sunday falls on November 8, 2026, making it the first date players can keep in mind following the announcement. However, Epic has not explicitly confirmed that the first session will take place that day.

These are the remaining Sundays in November:

Date	Status
Sunday, November 8	Possible matchday; time to be confirmed
Sunday, November 15	Possible matchday; time to be confirmed
Sunday, November 22	Possible matchday; time to be confirmed
Sunday, November 29	Possible matchday; time to be confirmed

These dates correspond to the November calendar and should not be interpreted as an official schedule confirmed by Epic Games.

It is also important not to confuse these events with Captain Days, whose dates were officially announced for November 1, 7, 12, 14, and 21.

The first Captain Day began on November 1 at 8:00 AM Mexico City time, but that schedule has not been confirmed for Treasure Hours.

What Are the Chances of Getting the Pirate Shop Access Token?

One of the biggest mysteries of the season is the token's drop rate.

Estimates circulating on social media suggest odds as low as one in hundreds of thousands of chests, but Epic Games has never published an official figure to verify those calculations.

In fact, on November 3, the official Fortnite Status account responded to the speculation and stated that all players have the same chance of finding Pirate Shop Access through Battle Royale chests.

This means that, for now, there is no specific number of chests that guarantees the reward.

There is also no official evidence that using certain One Piece skins, opening chests in a specific location, or playing at a particular time increases the chances of obtaining the token.

The arrival of Treasure Hours could introduce new benefits, but players will need to wait for official information to determine whether these changes directly affect the reward.

How to Prepare for the Token Hunt During Treasure Hours

While the details are being confirmed, players can take advantage of the season's regular gameplay mechanics to search for Pirate Shop Access.

Here are some recommendations:

1. Explore points of interest on the map: search for treasure chests throughout the island's different locations.
2. Play as a team: exploring with friends can make it easier to find chests during matches.
3. Check in-game news: Epic may announce the schedules for upcoming activities through its official channels.
4. Avoid fraudulent methods: do not use external tools that promise to guarantee the reward.

These recommendations allow players to participate in the hunt normally, but none of them guarantees obtaining the token or independently increases its individual drop rate.

What Other Updates Are Coming to Fortnite in November?

The Treasure Hunters season will not be limited to the token hunt. Epic has also announced new additions related to One Piece and other artists.

Confirmed dates include:

• November 5: A$AP Rocky arrives in the Item Shop.
• November 7: Zoro, Sanji, and the Chopper companion arrive.
• November 12: Lil Uzi Vert arrives.
• November 13: Buggy joins the game.
• November 14: Kasane Teto and Captain Hatsune Miku arrive.

Additionally, Captain Days will continue introducing weapons, characters, and temporary changes to the map, meaning November will feature numerous activities for Battle Royale players.

Treasure Hours Could Change Fortnite's Biggest Treasure Hunt

Pirate Shop Access has become one of the most coveted rewards from the One Piece collaboration, especially because it offers the chance to obtain free cosmetics during two separate 14-day periods.

The confirmation of special events featuring improved loot has raised expectations, while reports about possible Power Hours have given players hope that the token could become easier to find.

However, there is still no confirmed schedule for Mexico or an official statement guaranteeing increased odds of obtaining the token. Until Epic Games releases more information, any percentage, duration, or special method should be treated as a possibility rather than a guaranteed benefit.
