The Gears of War crossover event is underway, with new challenges for players to complete. Additionally, Winterfest 2021 is set to begin on December 16, adding its own set of challenges and exclusive rewards to unlock alongside fourteen days of free goodies each day. In the midst of it all is a brand new free winter-themed skin that players can also use starting December 16.
Blizzabelle skin in Fortnite
Ahead of its launch, influencers have pulled out a handful of information about Winterfest 2021. These include the list of freebies, new NPCs, unlockable rewards, and more. Interestingly, there is also a Blizzabelle outfit that will be available to all Epic Games Launcher users from December 16 to January 6.
The aforementioned information comes from well-known Fortnite leaker, Jovanmunja, who took to Twitter to share the news alongside the official Blizzabelle promotional image coming to Fortnite.
At the time of this writing, it's unclear if the free Blizzabelle skin would directly reflect in players' inventories or if players would have to claim it from the Epic Games Store, though the latter seems more likely to be the case. Regardless, this should be a compelling free reward to prepare players for the festivities that await them at Winterfest 2021.
