Mariah Carey's arrival has thawed the Fortnite landscape, kicking off the Winterfest 2024 event! To tackle the event's quests, players must locate SGT. Winter and discuss his "Wintervestigation." This guide reveals SGT. Winter's location and how to complete this crucial quest.
SGT. Winter's Location in Fortnite Chapter 6
The initial Wintervestigation quest directs players to SGT. Winter for a briefing. These quests involve collaborating with Noir to uncover clues and discover new NPCs across the Chapter 6 map.
The quest marker pinpoints SGT. Winter's location—near a plane crash atop a snowy mountain, east of Warrior's Watch and south of Foxy Floodgate. This area, while not a named Point of Interest (POI), is conveniently situated near several POIs and Mariah Carey's in-game concert site.
Interacting with SGT. Winter
Upon reaching the crash site, you'll find SGT. Winter patrolling nearby. He's marked on the map and HUD with a speech bubble. 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 Wintervestigation dialogue. He'll provide a new mission, sending you to Noir in Seaport City. Completing the conversation awards 25,000 XP.
Surviving the SGT. Winter Encounter
Reaching SGT. Winter can be challenging due to the area's popularity as a drop location. Consider waiting a few days for the initial rush to subside. Alternatively, strategically utilize the available cover and chests within the plane wreckage. Prioritize early arrival and securing nearby loot. Many players might land with only pickaxes, offering a fighting chance with a coordinated team and some luck.
This concludes your guide to finding SGT. Winter in Fortnite Winterfest 2024.
Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
