Fortnite Winterfest Sgt. Winter Found!

Mariah Carey's arrival has kicked off Fortnite's Winterfest 2024, but completing the event's quests requires a visit to SGT. Winter. This guide explains how to find him and complete the initial Wintervestigation quest.

Finding SGT. Winter in Fortnite Chapter 6

The first Wintervestigation quest sends players to SGT. Winter for a chat. These quests involve teaming up with Noir to uncover clues and locate new NPCs. The quest tracker will pinpoint SGT. Winter's location—a snowy mountaintop near a plane crash, east of Warrior's Watch and south of Foxy Floodgate. This area is close to Mariah Carey's in-game concert location.

Talking to SGT. Winter

SGT. Winter is an NPC near the plane wreckage, marked by a speech bubble icon. Interact with him to access a menu offering a Holo Twister Assault Rifle, Blizzard Grenade, or dialogue options. Select the magnifying glass icon to initiate the conversation about his investigation. Completing the dialogue rewards 25,000 XP and a new mission directing you to Noir in Seaport City.

Surviving and Looting at SGT. Winter's Location

Reaching SGT. Winter can be challenging due to the area's popularity. Consider waiting a few days for the crowds to thin. Alternatively, prioritize landing quickly and securing nearby chests for early-game advantages. The plane wreckage provides ample cover. Many players might drop in with only pickaxes, making early elimination feasible with a good team and some luck with loot.

This concludes the guide to locating SGT. Winter in Fortnite Winterfest 2024.

Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
