The Vini Jr. Sprite is one of Fortnite’s rarest collectibles, arriving as a Mythic Sprite during the Hot Bat Summer event. Inspired by football star Vinícius Júnior, this Sprite grants a unique combat ability that enhances your slide attack and temporarily boosts your weapon performance after hitting an opponent.
Here’s how to find the Vini Jr. Sprite and what it does.
How to Get the Vini Jr. Sprite
Because it’s a Mythic Sprite, the Vini Jr. Sprite has a very low drop rate.
Your best chance of finding one is by opening Sprite Chests, although it can also appear through several other sources.

What Does the Vini Jr. Sprite Do?
The Vini Jr. Sprite focuses on aggressive movement and close-range combat.
After sprinting for a short time, your next slide becomes destructive, allowing you to:
- Break structures while sliding.
- Damage enemies with a powerful slide kick.
- Gain a temporary fire rate and reload speed boost after successfully slide-kicking an opponent.
The strength of these bonuses increases as you level up the Sprite.
