How to get the Pirate Shop Access Token in Fortnite Chapter 7 mini season

The Pirate Shop Access Token is a new item in Fortnite Chapter 7 mini season that allows players to claim free items from the Fortnite item shop for a 14-day period. This includes outfits, pickaxes, back blings, sidekicks, and more, essentially giving players these cosmetics forever. However, obtaining the Pirate Shop Access Token is a challenging task.

To acquire the token, players must open a treasure chest in Fortnite, which is now called a treasure chest in the mini season. Regular chests have been transformed into treasure chests, so players don't need to search for anything special. When opening a treasure chest, there is a small chance of finding special loot for the player and their party members. This special loot is typically a gizmo like the Sprite Locator or the Portable Extractor. Rarely, the special loot can be a Pirate Shop Access Token.

When a player finds a Pirate Shop Access Token, they receive two tokens - one for 2026 and the other for 2027. Upon activating the token, players have 14 days to claim any item from the Fortnite item shop for free, including outfits, pickaxes, back blings, sidekicks, and more. However, there are certain items that cannot be purchased, such as real money offers (like V-Bucks and bundles), gifts, and pass levels/rewards.

For those hoping to find the Pirate Shop Access token, the best locations to land in are Arlong Park or Lantern Landing. These locations are close to each other, allowing players to quickly travel to Windmill Village and Loguetown. If players are quick and efficient, they can open upwards of 50 chests during a game.
