  "account": "The Fortnite Chapter 7 mini season, named Treasure Hunters, introduces a new map featuring pirate crews. This mini season has altered the map layout by reducing the number of POIs, while maintaining ample exploration opportunities. New items, inspired by the One Piece crew and A$AP Rocky's collection, are available upon starting the game. Additionally, previously vaulted items have been unvaulted, adding more options for players.\n\nThe player count has been reduced to 80 per match, compared to the regular 100, as players navigate the mini island within the game. The most significant addition is the Pirate Shop Token, granting unrestricted access to the shop for two weeks, enabling players to obtain any cosmetics for free. Uncovering this item in chests will require a blend of luck and skill.\n\nContent for this season will be released weekly, with new sprites debuting on Nov. 7, Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto appearing on Nov. 14, and Fortnite's own Oscar on Nov. 21. These updates will introduce more sprites, weapons, and other engaging items to enhance the season's experience. Each week will also feature bonus appearances of specific features. Mastery Mondays will return, doubling sprite XP and dust on Mondays, while Saturday's will host Captain's Days, featuring captains specific to the day. For a comprehensive list of changes, players can refer to Epic Games' community post for this patch.",
