Where To Find SGT. Winter in Fortnite Winterfest 2024

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 reveals SGT. Winter's location and how to complete his Wintervestigation quest.

SGT. Winter's Location in Fortnite Chapter 6

The initial Wintervestigation quest directs players to SGT. Winter for a briefing. These quests involve teaming up with Noir to uncover clues and locate new NPCs across the Chapter 6 map. The quest tracker will pinpoint SGT. Winter's location—near a plane crash site atop a snowy mountain east of Warrior's Watch and south of Foxy Floodgate, close to Mariah Carey's concert site.

Talking to SGT. Winter

SGT. Winter, marked by a speech bubble icon, patrols near the plane wreckage. Interacting with him presents options: purchasing a Holo Twister Assault Rifle, Blizzard Grenade, or initiating dialogue. Select the magnifying glass icon to begin the Wintervestigation conversation, receiving a new mission to find Noir in Seaport City. Completion rewards 25,000 XP.

Survival and Looting Strategies

Reaching SGT. Winter can be challenging due to the area's popularity as a drop point. Consider waiting for the initial rush to subside or utilize the following strategies:

• Strategic Loot: Purchase items from SGT. Winter; the Holo Twister Assault Rifle is a strong early-game weapon.
• Cover and Concealment: Utilize the plane wreckage for cover and prioritize looting nearby chests immediately upon landing. Many players may drop in with only pickaxes, providing an advantage.

Successfully completing this quest is key to progressing through the Winterfest event.

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