Here’s everything coming to Fortnite with Update v33.11 and in the few weeks we have left of this year.

Winterfest 2024 event: new skins and weapons

Fortnite’s annual holiday-themed event Winterfest 2024 is starting on December 20, 2024, at 8pm UK time / 3pm ET.

Along with cosy Christmas atmosphere, the event will bring a bunch of new Winterfest skins, with festive outfits featuring a few big-name celebs.

Snoop Dogg, who’s been in the game since last season, Mariah Carey, and Shaquille O’Neal are just a few of the stars getting a Christmas outfit during the winter event.

Ice Skates and the Blizzard Grenade are some of the items coming in Fortnite during Winterfest 2024.

Fortnite Skibidi Toilet collab

Unless you’re in kindergarten or elementary school, you’d be excused for not knowing what Skibidi Toilet is.

The series of YouTube Shorts featuring singing CGI heads emerging from urinals and toilet seats has been a cultural phenomenon among Gen Alpha viewers ever since its debut last year.

Fortnite has been quick to take notice, so a Skibidi Toilet collab is coming in a few hours from now.

Skibidi Toilet cosmetics, including a skin, back bling, and a pickaxe should arrive in the Item Shop after the next reset, so on December 18, 2024, at 7pm ET, which is midnight UK time.

The entire Skibidi Toiled bundle is expected to cost 2,200 V-Bucks, Fortnite’s in-game currency.

For reference, 2,800 V-Bucks are priced at £17.49 / $22.99 when purchased with real money.

Fortnite Chapter 6 Winter Map Changes

Fortnite’s Battle Royale map is getting a winter makeover as part of the Winterfest 2024 event, too.

Huge areas of the island will be covered in snow to get the festive mood on, while the parts to the northwest and southeast will remain unchanged.

The map changes will likely last only for the duration of the Winterfest event, which is due to end on January 7.

Cyberpunk 2077 x Fortnite

Dataminers found Cyberpunk 2077 items in Fortnite’s previous update, so fans are expecting a collab soon.

Specifically the Quadra Turbo-R 470 muscle car was spotted, so it could drop in the Item Shop before the next update.

Players could also be getting more Cyberpunk 2077 content than just the car, as yet another Keanu Reeves outfit is always a good idea.

DC Comics skins: The Joker, Poison Ivy, and more

DC Comics outfits have been absent from Fortnite for quite some time, but some of the most popular characters should be making a comeback to the Item Shop soon.

The Last Laugh bundle, which includes The Joker and Poison Ivy, will be returning in the next few days.

Harley Quinn and Starfire are also expected to drop in the Item Shop soon.
