Fortnite Icy Treat: Frozen Mariah Debuts in Chapter 6

A massive ice block, concealing the legendary Mariah Carey, has appeared on the Fortnite Chapter 6 map! Its location isn't immediately obvious, so here's how to find the frozen icon before she melts.

Finding Frozen Mariah Carey in Fortnite Chapter 6

The Winterfest update has brought a blizzard to the Battle Royale Island, blanketing much of the map in snow. Nestled within this snowy landscape, southwest of Brutal Boxcars, atop a prominent mountain, sits a colossal ice cube. While it might not be the ideal landing spot at the game's start due to limited loot (a couple of chests are present), intrepid players will discover their reward within.

Data miners confirm the presence of Mariah Carey within this icy prison. Her gradual thaw hints at a significant in-game event in the coming weeks.

Mariah Carey's Thawing and the Fortnite Event

Fortnite has recently featured numerous musical artists. Last season saw Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Ice Spice as in-game NPCs, culminating in the Remix The Finale event, which also included Juice WRLD. Now, early in Chapter 6, Fortnite continues this trend with Mariah Carey, promising a performance of her iconic holiday hits.

A mini-event is planned for Winterfest, though the precise date remains undisclosed. It's likely to occur before December 25th, given the Christmas theme of Carey's most popular holiday songs. A Mariah Carey skin will also 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 skin and emote to spread festive cheer.
