## Summary

New coverage highlights Treasure Hours, which are rumoured to increase the chance of finding Fortnite’s rare Pirate Shop Access token. The token temporarily lets a team claim eligible Item Shop items for free, making its timing potentially important for players hoping to collect cosmetics during the pirate-themed season.

The token appears in Treasure-Hunt chests and gives the whole team two weeks of access to eligible shop items, which remain in players’ lockers after the period ends. It can be activated once before 15 December and again in 2027; real-money purchases and sidekicks already owned are excluded. The article also says Squads and named locations may help players search more efficiently, while chest contents change weekly.
