Merry Christmas, Fortnite fans! To celebrate this special time of the year, Epic Games is bringing some more skins to the store, including features from popular franchises.
To kick off the Winterfest 2024 event, players are treated to festive outfits including the Santa Snoop skin, highlighting music icon Snoop Dogg dressed up for the holiday season. This unique variation offers players the chance to embody the OG Dogg during the festive season.
The exciting news is, players can claim the Santa Snoop skin for free by heading to the Winterfest cabin starting December 25, 2024, at 9 AM ET. All they need to do is unbox the small gold gift under the tree, which is conveniently located on the carpet between Snoop and the TV. It functions just like any other gift available during this festive time.
This skin will remain available until January 7, 2025, providing ample time for players to get their hands on this festive outfit. Interestingly, on the last day of Winterfest, players will also be rewarded with the Yulejacket skin, adding to the spirit of the celebration.
But that's not all. While the Santa Snoop skin gears up fans for the holiday cheer, the Winterfest 2024 event also sees the introduction of the Star Wars Samurai bundle. This was made available around December 24 or 25, depending on your location, and offers players the chance to incorporate points of interest from the iconic Star Wars universe right onto their Fortnite experience.
The Star Wars Samurai bundle includes two exciting skins: Darth Vader Samurai and Stormtrooper Samurai. The community has been buzzing about them since their announcement. Players had high hopes, especially with teasers hinting at glimmering pickaxes inspired by lightsabers, yet reactions have been mixed.
For fans interested, the Darth Vader Samurai costs 1,800 V-Bucks and includes the outfit plus Vader’s Katana Back Bling and Pick Axe, whereas the Stormtrooper Samurai is priced at 1,500 V-Bucks, also complete with its respective accessories. Players can purchase these limited-time skins until January 8, 2025.
The Winterfest event clearly aims not just to offer new skins but to deepen the connection among the community during this celebratory period. Whether it's through festive items or beloved franchises, Epic Games is ensuring Fortnite remains the go-to platform for holiday joy.
So, if you're eager to equip yourself with the Santa Snoop skin or grab one of the Star Wars skins, head to the Winterfest cabin or the Item Shop as this limited-time offers are not to be missed! Don't forget to stay updated on the latest news for Fortnite gear as the game continues to bring creative crossovers and unique celebrations to its population of spirited players.
