There is a free Jimothy sidekick in Fortnite right now, and most players have no idea it exists. Jimothy is a secret cosmetic that can be added to your locker without spending any V-Bucks, but it requires completing a hidden quest called Extract A Silly Little Guy that does not appear anywhere in the quest menu. Here is exactly how to unlock Jimothy sidekick in Fortnite.

How to Get the Dumpster Dive Sprite in Fortnite?

Before you can complete the quest you need to get your hands on a Dumpster Dive Sprite first. There are three ways to find one during a match:

  • Smash Pumpkin Chests: The giant glowing pumpkin chests scattered around the map have a chance to drop the Dumpster Dive Sprite. The Dumpster Dive Sprite has a confirmed drop chance of 7.091% from eligible containers.
  • Complete Trick or Treat Cheat Codes: Find and complete Trick or Treat Cheat Codes.
  • Eliminate Other Players or Trade: If another player is carrying a Dumpster Dive Sprite you can eliminate them and loot it from their drop or trade with them directly to get it without relying on container RNG.

Once you have the Dumpster Dive Sprite in hand head to an Extraction Site to complete the quest. Remember that using a Portable Gizmo does not count so make sure you are at a proper Extraction Site before extracting.
