How Does Cheat Code Monday Work in Fortnite?

Cheat Code Monday is a weekly Fortnite event that makes collecting, leveling and resummoning Sprites much easier. For 24 hours, all Sprites earn twice as much XP, allowing players to master their characters faster by opening chests, surviving Storm circles and completing other activities around the Island.
Players also receive twice as much Sprite Dust, which can be spent to resummon previously collected characters. Cheat Codes will also appear more frequently across the map and can provide boosted Sprite spawns when activated.
Unlike some previous Sprite events, Cheat Code Monday does not boost the spawn rate of one specific Sprite or variant. All 36 Sprites currently available in the game are featured in the same pool.
All Fortnite Cheat Code Monday Rewards and Perks
Here is everything available during Cheat Code Monday on August 31:
- Double Sprite XP
- Double Sprite Dust
- More Cheat Code spawns in the Overworld
- Boosted Sprite spawns through Cheat Codes
- All 36 currently available Sprites featured
Note: Epic Games has not released a new Lobby Hack code for this week’s event. The Gold Jonesy code was part of the previous Cheat Code Monday and is not a new reward for August 31.
Which Sprites Are Featured During Cheat Code Monday?

All 36 Sprites currently available in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 can be found during Cheat Code Monday. This includes Base, Cheat Master and Gold variants of characters such as Sonic, Tails, Shadow, Klombo, Jonesy, Killswitch, Storm Scout and several others.
However, none of these variants has an individually boosted drop rate. Activating Cheat Codes can increase Sprite spawns, but every eligible character remains part of the same overall pool. This means you will still need some luck if you are searching for a particular Gold or Cheat Master Sprite. You can view the complete collection using our complete Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 Sprites list.
Is Cheat Code Monday the New Mastery Monday?
Yes, Cheat Code Monday is the new version of Mastery Monday in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4. The updated event keeps the main bonuses from Mastery Monday, including double Sprite XP and twice as much Sprite Dust.
The biggest change is its connection to the Fortnite Override theme. Cheat Codes now appear more frequently throughout the Island and can trigger additional Sprite spawns. Despite the official name change, players searching for the Mastery Monday schedule are referring to the same weekly event.
