The Winterfest 2022 is coming in Fortnite update 23.10! Open 14 gifts during these festivities to get 17 in-game items for freeincluding two new outfits (there’s also a way to get a free third outfit!).

Open 14 gifts filled with free items!
The Winterfest Cabin (also known as the Cozy Cabin) is already in the game! But this time, you will not come across Sergeant Frimas. Here you’ll find the Frost Fairy, a tired Sleigh Guff, and the familiar face of cozy Jonesy.
From December 13 at 3:15 p.m. (CET), open one gift per day for 14 days at the Chalet. These 14 gifts contain a total of 17 items: two outfits, two gliders, two wraps, three parlor music, three sprays, a back bling, a trail, an emote and an emote, and all that free ! We don’t want to spoil the whole surprise for you, but the two free outfits are the arctic adeline outfit and the Sleigh Guff Outfit :
As with previous Winterfest, the Cozy Chalet is accessible in the snowflake tab of the lobby. If you miss a gift opening day, just come back anytime before Winterfest ends (January 3 at 3:00 p.m. CET) and open them.
Enjoy Reintroduced Battle Royale Items
Frosted gear is coming out of the shed and back in Battle Royale and Zero Build! During Winterfest 2022, throw explosive snowballs with the snowball thrower and deposit holiday gifts to open to get their loot.
Speaking of gifts, Sergeant Frosty isn’t on vacation during Winterfest 2022. He’s been patrolling the island on his special semi-trailer and handing out holiday gifts (as long as you’re good…).
Note: The Snowball Launcher will replace the Rocket Launcher during Winterfest.
A new experience is the greatest gift
