Mariah Carey's arrival has thawed the Fortnite landscape, initiating the 2024 Winterfest event. To tackle the event's quests, players must locate SGT. Winter and discuss his "Wintervestigation." This guide details SGT. Winter's location and how to complete the initial quest.
SGT. Winter's Location in Fortnite Chapter 6
The opening Wintervestigation quest requires interacting with SGT. Winter. These quests involve collaborating with Noir to uncover clues and discover new NPCs across the Chapter 6 map.
The quest tracker will pinpoint SGT. Winter's location—near a plane crash atop a snowy mountain, east of Warrior's Watch and south of Foxy Floodgate. This area is conveniently situated near Mariah Carey's in-game concert location.
Interacting with SGT. Winter
SGT. Winter, marked by a speech bubble icon, patrols near the plane wreckage. Interacting offers options: purchasing a Holo Twister Assault Rifle, Blizzard Grenade, or initiating dialogue.
Selecting the magnifying glass icon initiates a conversation about the Wintervestigation, leading to a new mission involving Noir in Seaport City. Completing this dialogue awards 25,000 XP.
Survival Strategies at SGT. Winter's Location
Surviving to reach SGT. Winter is challenging, as the area is a popular drop zone. Consider delaying until the area cools down, or employ these strategies:
- Strategic Loot: Purchase items from SGT. Winter. The Holo Twister Assault Rifle is a strong early-game weapon.
- Utilize Cover: The plane wreckage provides ample cover. Land near chests for early-game advantages.
- Eliminate Competition: Many players may only have pickaxes, creating opportunities for skilled players or lucky loot finds.
This concludes the guide to finding SGT. Winter during Fortnite's Winterfest 2024.
Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
