With the release of Chapter 3 for Fortnite, we believe that we had everything we could possibly ask for but the game had so much more in store for us. With the beginning of Season 1 of Chapter 3 and with the new map, you’d notice how there are holiday decorations are all around the place. This calls for the Winterfest 2021 to finally make its way to the game.
Winterfest comes along with an entirely new event, the Frost Frenzy, that should last throughout the entirety of December. This will give enough time to players to explore everything the new update has to offer and once again relish the holiday spirit with their favorite game.
