Toy Story 5: The Great Toy Rescue in Fortnite (Island Code and Dates)

Everything you need to load the limited-time island, complete all six toy rescues, and finish before the window closes.

Everything you need to load the limited-time island, complete all six toy rescues, and finish before the window closes.

Disney, Pixar, and Epic Games have dropped a full Toy Story adventure inside Fortnite, and it is not a skin bundle. The Great Toy Rescue opened on September 22, 2026, spreading six missing toys across a set of creator-made islands and asking players to bring every one of them back to Bonnie’s room before the window shuts.

Quick answer: The event remains available until October 5, 2026. Enter island code 6059-3243-8283 and finish six rescue missions to bring Woody and Jessie back, along with Buzz Lightyear, Rex, Hamm, and Forky, to Bonnie’s room.


How the Great Toy Rescue works

The setup is explained in the launch trailer. A tear in spacetime cracks open inside Bonnie’s bedroom and pulls Jessie, Buzz Lightyear, Rex, and Forky through it, scattering the gang across Fortnite islands. Fortnite characters then show up in the room to go get them back.

The hub is Bonnie’s room rendered at toy height, so ordinary furniture becomes terrain you climb and grapple across. It works as a persistent home base you return to between missions. A row of glowing blue portals sits in the room, each one marked with a Toy Story character and the ability tied to that rescue.

Each portal sends you to a different creator-made island with its own challenge and its own themed rewards. That structure is the notable part. It is the first time Disney and Pixar have run a single branded adventure across multiple creator-made Fortnite islands at the same time, rather than building one standalone map.


Island code 6059-3243-8283: Loading the map

Launch Fortnite and open the Discover screen where islands are browsed. This is the same place you would search for any creator island.
Enter the island code 6059-3243-8283 exactly as written, including the hyphens. Select the Toy Story 5: The Great Toy Rescue result that comes back.
Launch the island. You know it loaded correctly when you spawn inside the scaled-up bedroom with the line of blue rescue portals visible ahead of you.

All six toy rescue missions

Every toy has its own mission with a different objective, so no two rescues play the same way. Five are solo runs and one requires a partner.

Buzz Lightyear has the most demanding run of the set. Collecting his batteries means climbing obstacles and outmaneuvering other players at the same time, so it is the one mission where the competition is as much of a problem as the course.

Jessie is a straight collection hunt for Bullseye’s horseshoes. In the trailer, her unlock comes from a keypad puzzle in the bedroom, where a player punches 1 3 3 7 into the Smarty Pants toy and gets a pickaxe ability in return.

Woody is the only rescue built for two. It is a squad competition where a pair of players gathers crayons together, which makes it the obvious one to run with a kid or a friend rather than solo queuing.

Skills, rewards, and how to tell a rescue worked

Progress unlocks abilities as you go. The trailer shows players earning a pickaxe used to smash floor grates and cardboard vents, a weapon used to hit hidden wall targets, and a jump boost. XP markers are scattered through the islands and get picked up as you move.

Confirmation is hard to miss. When a rescue lands, a banner appears on screen naming the toy you freed, such as Jessie Unlocked or Woody Unlocked, with the ability icon you just earned next to it.

Beyond the unlock banners, each island hands out its own themed rewards, which is the reason to work through all six instead of stopping at the easy ones. The finished state is every toy standing together back in the bedroom. The trailer’s closing shot has Woody, Jessie, Buzz, and Hamm lined up in front of the active portal rings under the words Bring Everyone Home.

Between rescues you will pass through a Star Command control room, teleport gates, and a stone temple with bounce pads and moving pillar platforms. Those are transitions between islands rather than separate objectives.


How long the event runs

The Great Toy Rescue is playable from September 22 through October 5, 2026, with the cutoff at 11:59 PM PT on October 5. That is a two-week window to finish all six missions, and there is no confirmed extension or repeat run.

This is a limited-time collaboration, so the island code stops being playable once the window closes. Finish the rescues you care about early rather than saving them for the final weekend.

Pixar framed the whole thing simply when it announced the event.

The toys need your help—take part in The Great Toy Rescue, tackle Fortnite challenges to earn rewards, and get them back home.

The timing is deliberate. Toy Story 5 lands on Disney+ on September 23, 2026, one day after the Fortnite event opened, following a theatrical run that passed $1 billion worldwide. If you are planning to watch the film and play the island, the rescue gives you roughly two weeks of overlap to do both.
