Mariah Carey has thawed out, launching Fortnite's Winterfest 2024 festivities! To tackle the event's quests, you'll need to track down SGT. Winter and discuss his "Wintervestigation." Here's how to find him.

SGT. Winter's Location in Fortnite Chapter 6

The initial Wintervestigation quest directs players to SGT. Winter for a chat. These quests appear to involve collaborating with Noir to uncover clues and discover new NPCs across the Chapter 6 map.

The quest marker will pinpoint SGT. Winter's location on your map, even before the match begins. He's situated near a plane crash site atop a snowy mountain, east of Warrior's Watch and south of Foxy Floodgate. This area is close to Mariah Carey's in-game concert location.

Talking to SGT. Winter in Fortnite

Upon landing, you'll find SGT. Winter patrolling near the plane wreckage. He's marked with a speech bubble icon. Interact to access a menu offering a Holo Twister Assault Rifle, Blizzard Grenade, or conversation options.

To initiate the Wintervestigation, select the magnifying glass icon. A text-based conversation will follow, leading to a new mission: finding Noir in Seaport City. Completing the dialogue rewards 25,000 XP.

Surviving and Looting at SGT. Winter's Location

While the quest itself is simple, survival presents a challenge. This early quest makes the area a popular drop zone. Consider waiting a few days for the crowds to thin. Alternatively, leverage the available strategies.

Quickly acquire loot from the nearby chests and utilize the plane wreckage for cover. Many players might drop in with only a pickaxe, giving you an advantage. A coordinated team and some luck with chest spawns greatly improve your chances.

That's how to find SGT. Winter in Fortnite Winterfest 2024.

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