You can level up the Crown Sprite with Adventure Sprite in Fortnite by carrying the Crown Sprite in your inventory while levelling an equipped Adventure Sprite. The Adventure Sprite upgrades a random item in your inventory each time it levels, and players have discovered that the Crown Sprite can receive that upgrade too.
Normally, the Crown Sprite can only be levelled by winning matches, making it one of the hardest Chapter 7 Season 4 Sprites to master. However, the Adventure Sprite provides a much easier alternative while the interaction remains available.
The trick is making sure the Crown Sprite is the only item in your inventory that the Adventure Sprite can upgrade.
How to Level Up the Crown Sprite With Adventure Sprite
To level up the Crown Sprite with Adventure Sprite, use the following method:
- Get a Crown Sprite and place it in your inventory.
- Equip an Adventure Sprite on your back.
- Remove other items that the Adventure Sprite could upgrade.
- Level up your Adventure Sprite.
- When Adventure Sprite activates its upgrade ability, the Crown Sprite receives the upgrade.
- Repeat the process to continue levelling your Crown Sprite.
Multiple players are now reporting success with this method, including players who have used it to reach maximum Crown Sprite level.
Why Does the Adventure Sprite Trick Work?
The trick comes from the Adventure Sprite’s normal ability.
The Adventure Sprite upgrades a random item in your inventory every time it gains a level. That ability is part of its official Chapter 7 Season 4 functionality.
What players quickly discovered is that “item” isn’t limited to weapons.
A Sprite sitting in your inventory can apparently be selected for the upgrade too.
That means if the Crown Sprite is the only eligible item available when Adventure Sprite levels up, the random upgrade has nowhere else to go.
The Crown Sprite gets it.
Why Should You Remove Other Items From Your Inventory?
This is the important part of the Crown Sprite Adventure Sprite trick.
Adventure Sprite upgrades a random eligible inventory item.
If you have several items capable of being upgraded, you cannot guarantee the Crown Sprite will be selected.
Players are therefore removing other upgradable items before the Adventure Sprite reaches its next level.
You don’t necessarily have to throw away absolutely everything.
For example, players report carrying Legendary weapons because they cannot be upgraded further. The aim is simply to make the Crown Sprite the only valid target for Adventure Sprite’s upgrade ability.
Can Adventure Sprite Really Upgrade Other Sprites?
Yes, according to extensive player testing since Chapter 7 Season 4 launched.
Players have successfully used Adventure Sprite to upgrade the Crown Sprite, and reports indicate the same underlying interaction can work with other Sprites held in your inventory.
That’s potentially much more useful than the Adventure Sprite’s description initially suggests.
Instead of only upgrading weapons, its ability can currently be used to manipulate Sprite progression.
Why Use This Trick on the Crown Sprite?
Because levelling the Crown Sprite normally is difficult.
The Crown Sprite’s stated requirement is unusual: it can only be levelled by winning matches.
Adventure Sprite effectively provides another route.
Rather than needing another Victory Royale for every stage of progression, you can level Adventure Sprite and redirect its upgrade into the Crown Sprite.
For anyone trying to master every Chapter 7 Season 4 Sprite, that’s a considerable shortcut.
Does the Adventure Sprite Crown Trick Work in Bot Lobbies?
This is where things get particularly interesting.
Players report that normal bot-lobby wins do not level the Crown Sprite, but the Adventure Sprite method can still level it because the progression is coming from Adventure Sprite’s ability rather than the Victory Royale itself.
That makes the Adventure Sprite trick potentially useful for players who normally use bot lobbies for Sprite collecting.
However, this is a player-discovered interaction rather than an officially documented Crown Sprite levelling method, so Epic could change its behaviour.
Does the Adventure Sprite Trick Unlock Cheat Master Crown Sprite?
Here’s the catch.
Players who have levelled or mastered Crown Sprite using Adventure Sprite are reporting that doing so may not unlock its next variant.
That makes sense alongside the Crown Sprite’s intended progression, which specifically requires wins.
So there are currently two separate goals to consider.
If you simply want to level or master your Crown Sprite, the Adventure Sprite trick works according to current player testing.
If you are specifically trying to unlock subsequent Crown Sprite variants, you may still need to fulfil the intended Victory Royale requirements.
Until that interaction is clearer, don’t use the Adventure Sprite shortcut assuming it guarantees every Crown Sprite unlock.
Is the Adventure Sprite Crown Trick a Bug?
We don’t know.
Adventure Sprite’s stated ability is to upgrade a random item in your inventory at each level, while Crown Sprite’s description says it can only be levelled by winning matches.
Those two descriptions obviously create a slightly weird interaction when Adventure Sprite is capable of upgrading the Crown Sprite anyway.
Players are debating whether it is an exploit, an oversight or simply a clever use of the Adventure Sprite’s intended ability.
Epic has not confirmed that the interaction is intentional.
Because of that, it could potentially be changed in a future hotfix.
Can You Use Adventure Sprite to Upgrade Other Sprites?
Current player testing suggests yes.
The trick is not inherently exclusive to Crown Sprite. Adventure Sprite’s upgrade can target other Sprites held in the inventory.
The Crown Sprite is simply the most useful target discovered so far because its normal levelling requirement is so much harder.
This could make Adventure Sprite one of the most valuable utility Sprites in Chapter 7 Season 4 for anyone trying to complete and master the entire collection.
How to Level Up Crown Sprite With Adventure Sprite Explained
The easiest current method to level up the Crown Sprite with Adventure Sprite in Fortnite is to equip Adventure Sprite, carry Crown Sprite in your inventory and remove other items that could receive Adventure Sprite’s random upgrade.
When Adventure Sprite gains a level, its ability can upgrade the Crown Sprite instead. Players have successfully repeated the process to take Crown Sprite through multiple levels.
There is one important warning: mastering Crown Sprite this way may not satisfy the requirements for unlocking its subsequent variant, according to early player reports.
So if you just want that bloody Crown Sprite mastered, this is currently a very handy shortcut.
If you want every Crown variant as well, victories may still be unavoidable.
