An unidentified flying object has landed in PowerWash SPLASHOUT, and naturally the first job is to clean it. UK studio FuturLab has added a UFO-themed timed challenge to its Fortnite island, bringing an extraterrestrial twist to the familiar satisfaction of washing away dirt.
The new content went live on 12 November 2026 at 2pm GMT. Players can take part alone, work together or compete against other teams to see who can get the mysterious craft looking spotless in the shortest time.
A Different Kind of Close Encounter
The UFO joins the existing attractions in PowerWash SPLASHOUT, a Fortnite experience that adapts the cleaning gameplay associated with PowerWash Simulator into an island with cooperative and competitive activities.
Rather than giving players a conventional combat objective, the new challenge is about technique and speed. The timer rewards people who can find and clear stubborn patches efficiently, while groups can divide the work or compete for a better result.
FuturLab has released a UFO update trailer showing the new addition. The island continues to provide a more playful alternative to the usual Fortnite match, with cleaning and progression as the main attractions.
How to Play PowerWash SPLASHOUT
To visit the island, open Fortnite’s Discover menu and enter 7630-0397-6508. PowerWash SPLASHOUT is available through Fortnite across PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch and mobile devices supported by the game.
The island is independently created by FuturLab and is not sponsored, endorsed or administered by Epic Games. The UFO update is available now.
