What the June 25 Sprites add to the season
The five additions round out the Chapter 7 Season 3 Sprite roster to sixteen and fill gaps the original lineup left open. Fishy and Striker bring dedicated mobility, Aura adds an aggressive Shock Rock proc, Boss is a pure survival booster, and Grim is a deterrent Mythic with the lowest drop rate ever attached to a Sprite. Every one of them ships with the four standard variants described below.
Variants: Base, Gold, Gummy, and Galaxy
Like every Sprite in the season, the June 25 additions come in four variants. Each special variant keeps the Base ability and stacks one bonus effect on top:
- Base: the standard version carrying the Sprite's rarity and ability.
- Gold: Base ability plus 3x bonus XP from eliminations.
- Gummy: Base ability plus 20% more Sprite Dust upon Extraction.
- Galaxy: Base ability plus 30% more Ammunition when looting. Galaxy first arrived on June 18, 2026 for the original Sprites, and these five launched with it already built in.
Fishy Sprite (Rare)
Fishy is the season's new mobility starter. Cheap to summon and the most common of the five, it pairs a big swim-speed boost with a short movement-speed burst whenever you take damage, making it a strong pick on water-heavy drops and aggressive rotations.
Aura Sprite (Epic)
Aura is the aggressive Epic of the batch. Deal enough damage to enemies and you earn a Shock Rock charge, and the damage threshold drops as you level the Sprite, so it rewards staying in fights. It shares the new 5.74% Epic Base rate with Striker.
Striker Sprite (Epic)
Striker is built for movement. Mantling, hurdling, or wall scrambling grants the Overdrive effect, and the duration climbs from 6 to 10 seconds as it levels. It is one of the strongest rotation tools in the season for players who like to keep moving.
Boss Sprite (Legendary)
Boss is the survival pick of the update, a flat increase to your max HP and Shield that scales up to 25 of each at Max Level. That is raw effective health you carry the whole match, and unlike most Sprites it is claimed by defeating a powerful adversary rather than pulled from a chest.
Grim Sprite (Mythic)
Grim is the headline rarity of the update and the rarest Sprite in the entire game, with a Base drop rate of just 0.000098%. Its effect marks anyone who attacks you for a few seconds, turning careless pushes into free information. Pulling one, let alone a Gold, Gummy, or Galaxy Grim, is a genuine trophy.
Which new Sprite should you chase?
- Easiest value: Fishy. At 100 Dust and a 13.79% Base drop, it is cheap, common, and the mobility is always useful.
- Best for fights: Aura. The Shock Rock charge rewards aggression and the trigger threshold only gets easier as it levels.
- Best for rotations: Striker. Free Overdrive off mantles and hurdles is some of the strongest movement uptime in the season.
- Best for staying alive: Boss. Up to 25 extra HP and Shield is effective health you never have to think about.
- Pure flex: Grim. The rarest Sprite in the game, with a mark-on-attacker effect that punishes anyone who pushes you.
