The Vini Jr Sprite is a Mythic companion added in v41.20 on July 16, 2026, modeled after football superstar Vinícius Júnior in his iconic yellow kit. Its reported ability is all about aggression on the move: sprinting for a short time makes your slide destructive, and slidekicking enemies increases your rate of fire and reload speed (treat the exact values as reported until Epic confirms them). It is one of the most playstyle-defining passives in the pool — you are rewarded for literally sliding into fights.
Like the Pollo Sprite, it is a single-variant Mythic: Normal form only, no Gold, Gummy, Galaxy, or Holofoil finishes listed. Summoning it from your collection costs 7,500 Sprite Dust.
How to Get the Vini Jr Sprite
The Vini Jr Sprite drops from Sprite Chests and Rare Chests on the Chapter 7 Season 3 map, with Sprite Chests giving the best odds since they guarantee an Epic-or-better pull. No official drop rate has been published, and Mythic Sprites are the rarest tier, so expect a long hunt. Bank your find at an Extraction Site, with a Portable Extractor, or by winning the match — extraction is what makes it permanent.
Is the Vini Jr Sprite Worth Chasing?
If you love movement-heavy, in-your-face Fortnite, this is your Sprite: destructive slides plus fire-rate and reload buffs on slidekicks turn aggressive entries into real damage. It is conditional — you have to sprint and slide into people to get value — so it opens around B tier until the numbers settle, but the ceiling for confident fraggers is high. For collectors, a football-crossover Mythic with a single row is also one of the cleanest prestige pulls of the season.
Track Your Vini Jr Sprite
One Mythic, one row. Tick the Vini Jr Sprite off on the Sprite Checklist when you extract it, then push it to Level 5 for mastery — the checklist tracks both, so you always know if the job is truly finished.
