Finding Frozen Mariah Carey in Fortnite Chapter 6

The Fortnite 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 (hard to miss!), sits a colossal ice cube. While not a prime landing spot due to limited loot (a couple of chests are present), brave players venturing there first will discover its frozen inhabitant.

Data miners confirm that this icy prison holds none other than Mariah Carey, gradually thawing and hinting at a major in-game event in the weeks ahead.

Mariah Carey's Fortnite Thaw: What to Expect

Fortnite has recently featured several musical superstars. 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 is once again embracing musical talent, with Carey poised to perform her iconic holiday hits within the Battle Royale.

A mini-event is planned for Winterfest, though the precise date remains unannounced. It's likely to occur before December 25th, given the Christmas theme of Carey's most famous holiday songs. 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 could be upset about losing a match when greeted by her angelic voice from the opposing team?

That's how to locate the frozen Mariah Carey in Fortnite Chapter 6. For more season tips and tricks, learn how to enable and utilize Simple Edit in Battle Royale.
