You're too slow!
Graphic: Julia Lee/Polygon | Source images: Epic GamesSonic power hours are coming to Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 on Saturday, Aug. 29, with the Sonic sprite appearing more often.
The Sonic sprite will increase your sprint speed with every level up, which will make you as fast as, well, Sonic the Hedgehog. If you're a fan of the franchise, this will be the perfect time to log on and gather as many Sonics as you can. Then, you can show mastered sprites off as a back bling (once the back bling does get released), or use them in-game to run at the speed of sound.
Here's what time the Sonic power hours start and end in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4.
