The Fortnite Ironmouse Sprite is now available in the game as of August 4. The Mythic Sprite was originally released on July 30. However, Epic Games quickly vaulted it after it was accidentally launched nearly a week too early. Well, the rare Sprite variant is finally available in the battle royale to extract and add to your collection!

The Fortnite Ironmouse Sprite was released at 6 PM PT / 9 PM ET to line up with the VTuber’s debut anniversary livestream. Ironmouse is highly coveted because it has some pretty broken powers. Here is its official ability description: “Regenerate health over time when low. While regenerating, gain Cloak and low gravity!”

Ironmouse Sprite Hours Explained

According to Epic Games, the Ironmouse Sprite will have “boosted drop rates” until August 5 at 3 AM ET. So if you want to get the Mythical Spite, you will want to log in within the next six hours to participate in the Ironmouse Hours event.

UPDATE:

The Ironmouse Sprite Hours is currently bugged. Many players have reported that the Mythical Sprite is not showing up in their Collection tab despite successfully extracting her. We can confirm this ourselves. Hopefully Epic games fixes this!

The Fortnite Ironmouse Sprite can be found in Relic Chests throughout the map. However, it is a Mythic variant, which means it has a lower spawn rate than most sprites. Before you worry too much, it isn’t as difficult to find as the Grim or Zero Point Sprite.

Because of its Mythic rarity though, you may still need to open quite a few Relic Chests before finding it. Here is where you can find the Ironmouse in Fortnite, along with its spawn rate:

While it may take effort to track down the Mythical variant, its health regeneration, Cloak, and low-gravity powers make it one of the strongest Sprites currently available in Fortnite, so it is absolutely worth hunting down.

Finally, Ironmouse has a 6,750 Dust cost to resummon. So if you want to bring her into matches, you may want to take advantage of the Mastery Monday Fortnite event that happens every week which offers double Sprite Dust.
