A typical winter event is coming to Fortnite. We know so much about it that we can slowly sum up all the information.
The next update to be released in Fortnite will be 19.10. According to leakers, it is on test servers and will be added “soon”. This may mean that Epic will not wait its standard 2 weeks, and will add a new patch next Tuesday, December 14th.
This is confirmed by the rest of the information, such as the Marshmello one. His style is due to be added on December 14th. If so, the event itself can start on Tuesday. Of course, this is not for sure, but it is the first date when this event can be expected.

Don’t forget the two skins that won the community best concept competition. Potentially, these two skins will be free:
So this year there will be a classic winter event with:
- Free items,
- Typically Christmas accessories – snowmen, gifts,
- Map decorated with lights,
- New lobby, menu, potentially classic holiday home,
- Challenges.
So far, there is no information about the “live event”, so it is possible that everything will be limited to winter.
