Expectations from Winterfest 2024
While Epic Games has remained relatively tight-lipped, it’s clear that the beloved Cabin feature will make a return this year. This addition, much cherished by players, adds a cozy element to the event.
As is tradition with Winterfest, players can look forward to a variety of festive items and rewards. Here’s a sneak peek at what is anticipated:
Daily Rewards
A hallmark of the Winterfest celebration, daily rewards await players who log in each day. Historically, the prizes have ranged from delightful Sprays and music tracks to exclusive themed skins and Pickaxes.
Previously, players would visit the Cabin to open one present every 24 hours. However, last year’s edition switched to a more conventional login reward system, which did not sit well with the community. Fortunately, the classic present-opening format is set to return this holiday season.
Free Skin
In an exciting rumor shared by Fortnite leaker Wensoing, there’s speculation about a Christmas Tree Guff skin being available for free during Winterfest. This could be a delightful addition for players looking to enhance their in-game wardrobe.

- Sneaky Snowmando
- Snowball Launcher
- Snowy Flopper
- Icy Grappler
Map Enhancements
Not only are weapons getting festive upgrades, but the entire island will likely undergo a magical transformation to embrace the spirit of the season. Players can anticipate Christmas-themed decorations, such as twinkling fairy lights adorning buildings and whimsical snowmen placed around the map.
