The recent Fortnite Winterfest update has brought a blanket of snow to the Battle Royale island. Nestled within this snowy landscape, southwest of Brutal Boxcars, sits a colossal ice chunk on a prominent mountain – hard to miss! While it might not be the ideal landing spot at the game's start due to limited loot (though a couple of chests are present), intrepid players venturing there first will discover the frozen songstress.

Data miners confirm that the iconic Mariah Carey is encased within. Her gradual thaw promises a significant in-game event in the weeks ahead.

Mariah Carey's Fortnite Thaw: What to Expect

Fortnite has recently showcased a strong focus on musical artists. Last season featured Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Ice Spice as NPCs, culminating in the Remix The Finale event, which also included Juice WRLD. Now, early in Chapter 6, Fortnite continues this trend, bringing Carey's iconic holiday music to the Battle Royale.

A special Winterfest mini-event is planned, though the exact date remains undisclosed. Given Carey's Christmas classics, it's likely to occur before December 25th. Furthermore, a Mariah Carey skin will be available in the Item Shop, along with a free "All I Want for Christmas Is You" emote. Even after the event concludes, players can utilize the Carey skin and emote to spread festive cheer across the map. Who wouldn't want to hear that angelic voice emanating from an opponent?
