The Burnt Peanut is perhaps the most surprising addition to Fortnite runnerand is secretly part of the Battle Pass, which you might not even know about due to the rarity of how you can get him in the first place. The Burnt Peanut is not unlocked via quests or purchased from the Item Shop.
Instead, you can get the burnt peanut by finding his Sprite in Battle Royale. However, this is not an easy task, and the odds must be extremely in your favor for this to actually happen, and we'll share exactly how you can get the Burnt Peanut (and how rare it is to get him) here.
All the Sprites in Fortnite Runners (and Where to Find Them)
One of the biggest focuses of Season 3 is the return of Sprites, with both old and new critters making an appearance. Here are all the Sprites in Fortnite Runners.
How to get the burnt peanut in Fortnite
There is a 1.5% (1 in 67) chance of getting Burnt Peanut Sprite when you open chests, rare chests and spirit chests. That means, starting from the release date of Fortnite runneryou have to go into Battle Royale and spam every chest you see hoping luck is on your side.
This information comes from a reliable Fortnite leaker, Leaky (@itsmeleaky), on X, which also proves that TheBurntPeanut Sprite is in the game, but extremely rare.
If the RNG is on your side and you manage to get the Burnt Peanut Sprite, then you will want to immediately go to an extraction site on the map, which you will need extract the Burnt Peanut Sprite before you are eliminatedor someone else can steal it and extract it.
Once you successfully extract the Burnt Peanut Sprite, you can safely return to the lobby, as it will now be in your collection. After visiting the “Fits” tab, you'll be alerted to a new unlock for The Guardian, an outfit in your locker that you can edit with E/Square/X to equip the burnt peanut pilot.
We expect the rarity values to increase as the season progresses, so if you really want TheBurntPeanut, you may just have to wait for those values to increase, as only a handful of players out of millions have this Sprite.
