Fortnite Spring Breakout 2023: Easter quests and eggy weapon revealed
Eggciting times.
Spring Breakout is back in Fortnite and the 2023 version of the event is bringing the Easter goods.
With new daily quests to complete, eggs to find, and the Egg Launcher weapon back from its stint in the Vault, this year's Easter event in Fortnite is set to be one to remember.
Added to the battle royale game as part of the v24.10 update, Spring Breakout is here for a couple of weeks so it'll be up to you to make the most of it before it's gone for another year.
Keep on reading to find out everything there is to know about the Fortnite Spring Breakout event in 2023. Discover its start and end date and more below.
What is the Fortnite Spring Breakout 2023 event?
The Spring Breakout 2023 event in Fortnite adds a spring makeover to the game's island with cherry blossoms, spring chickens, eggs, and the return of the Egg Launcher weapon.
You'll find the Egg Launcher on the ground, in chests, as part of supply drops, and for sale from certain characters. The new Springtime Blowout Reality Augment will give you one, too.
During the event, you'll also come across new spring chickens, which lay three new types of egg that you can pick up, eat, and interact with. These eggs are as follows (as per the official Fortnite website):
- Heal Eggs: These green eggs restore your Health and Shield slowly over time.
- Hop Eggs: These blue eggs temporarily give you a low gravity effect, and also give you Health.
- Golden Eggs: You can’t technically eat these eggs, but interacting with one grants you Bars! (Unlike Heal Eggs and Hop Eggs, Golden Eggs cannot be added to your inventory.)
The latest edition of the spring event in Fortnite brings with it new daily quests, added each day until the event comes to an end. Complete these quests to earn XP towards your battle pass and to earn some exclusive event rewards.
