## Key points

- Pirate Shop access requires finding a special token.
- Activated tokens give 14 days to claim eligible items.
- One squad member’s token unlocks access for the whole squad.

## Summary

Fortnite’s Pirate Shop has opened as part of the Treasure Hunters season, offering eligible Item Shop items that normally cost V-Bucks at no charge. Players must find and activate a Pirate Shop Token to gain access, making the feature a limited-time opportunity during the season.

There are two token types, with different activation windows: one can be activated by 15 December this year, while the other can be activated from 1 January until 15 December next year. After activation, players have 14 days to claim items; bundles and items sold for real money are excluded. Tokens may appear in special chests with random locations and apparently low odds, and one token found by a squad member grants access to the whole squad.
