Where To Find SGT. Winter in Fortnite Winterfest 2024

Once you land in the area, you’ll find SGT. Winter as an NPC roaming around near the plane crash wreckage. SGT. Winter is marked on the map and on the HUD with a speech bubble icon. Interacting with him will bring up an interface with several options. From this menu, players have the option to purchase a Holo Twister Assault Rifle, Blizzard Grenade, or start dialogue.

To ask SGT. Winter about his Wintervestigation, click on the icon resembling a magnifying glass. This will trigger text-only dialogue where he’ll give you a new mission, assigning players to head to Noir in Seaport City. Once you’ve clicked through all the dialogue, you’ll be awarded a quest completion and a generous 25,000 XP.

How to Survive and Loot at SGT. Winter’s Location in Fortnite

While the challenge itself is fairly straightforward, surviving long enough to talk to SGT. Winter is a challenge in and of itself. Since this challenge is one of the first Quests in the Wintervestigation Quest Chain, the area is an especially hot drop. That being said, it may be worth it to wait a couple of days until the area has died down a bit. However, if you’re eager to get in there and get the Quest complete, there are some options.

For starters, you can just go directly to SGT. Winter and purchase the loot he has for sale. If you and your squad have a solid stack of gold bars, the Epic Holo Twister Rifle is a really solid early-game option, and several are in stock.

That being said, it takes a bit of time (and leaves players vulnerable) to finish talking to SGT. Winter. Thankfully, there is plenty of cover and chests within the plane crash. Try to drop at the location as early as possible, and land directly on a chest. Use the plane wreckage for cover, and pick off enemies as they fight each other. There’s a solid chance that many of the enemies who drop in this area will have nothing but a pickaxe, so clearing out the area should be feasible with a solid team and/or good luck from the nearby loot chests.

And that’s where to find SGT. Winter in Fortnite Winterfest 2024.
