- Yulejacket skin requires 13 days of logging in and opening presents.
- Santa Dogg skin will be available for free later during Winterfest 2024 (exact date TBA).
- The Fortnite Winterfest event runs until January 7, 2024, at 9 AM ET.
Winterfest is back in Fortnite, and this time around you can get your hands on two completely free skins – the Yulejacket outfit and a holiday version of everyone’s favorite rapper turned into Santa Dogg. Unlike previous events where you’d need to complete specific challenges or spend V-Bucks, these skins just need a bit of patience and daily logins.
If you’re ready to deck your locker with these holiday treats without spending a single V-Buck, grab some hot coffee and let’s unwrap everything you need to know!
Fornite Winterfest Event Duration and Location
Before diving into the specific skins, you should know that Winterfest 2024 runs until January 7, 2024, at 9 AM ET. To participate, simply head to the Snowflake tab in your Fortnite lobby. This will take you to the cozy Winterfest Cabin, where all the holiday magic happens.
How to Get the Fortnite Yulejacket Skin
The Yulejacket outfit is one of the main attractions of this year’s Winterfest, featuring a cool winter-themed design. However, getting this skin requires some patience and dedication. You’ll find it in the tall green present box with a red ribbon on the left side of the cabin, but there’s a catch – it’s designed to be the final gift you’ll open during the event.
To obtain the Yulejacket outfit, you must log in for at least 13 consecutive days and open one present each day. This means you can’t rush the process by opening multiple presents simultaneously. The game specifically saves this outfit for last, so ensure you’re logging in daily to stay on track. Missing a day won’t reset your progress, but it will delay getting your hands on this cool skin.
How to Get the Fortnite Santa Dogg Skin
The Santa Dogg outfit brings a festive twist to Snoop Dogg’s appearance in Fortnite. This marks his third skin in the game, following his previous appearances in the Item Shop and Music Pass. While this skin is confirmed to be free, Epic Games hasn’t revealed the exact release date during Winterfest 2024.
What we do know is that the Santa Dogg outfit will be available as a present in the Winterfest Cabin. Some players speculate it might become available after collecting all the other presents, including the Yulejacket outfit.
While you’re waiting to unlock these skins, don’t forget about other Winterfest activities. The event includes various quests from Sgt. Winter rewards you with 25,000 XP each, and you can also get the Peppermint Paraglider as part of the holiday celebrations.
Remember to check the Winterfest Cabin daily until January 7; you’ll be rocking these exclusive outfits before you know it. Whether you’re a fan of the winter-themed Yulejacket or looking forward to spreading holiday cheer as Santa Dogg, these free skins are worth the wait.
