Fortnite Christmas Winterfest Event 2022 is almost here and it’s going to be a blast! I am sure that there will be presents for everyone and I hope to see the same sort of Present opening we see from the Fortnite Birthday Event.
We are already seeing Fortnite Winterfest Event Trailers like the one below, and its only October!
What time is Fortnite Christmas Winterfest Event?
Fortnite Winterfest normally kicks of around mid-Decembers and runs for 2 weeks to the lead up to New Year’s Eve
Last years Winterfest 2021 was a blast, but i think this years going to be bigger
What are the Christmas Winterfest Quests in Fortnite?
We are going to see a new raft of quests to work on over the Winterfest Season to keep us Questers busy, I am personally looking to see Fortnite Quest Only items this year that could include:
Winterfest 2022 Banner – Christmas Trees, Presents and the like
Contrail – Streamers and decorations, maybe a string of Tree Lights
Loading Screen – Santa Chilling out on top of a mountain with his reindeer perhaps
Winterfest Music – Sleigh Bells, can’t go wrong here…
Emotes – Opening a Present, Drinking some Christmas Nutmeg
Harvesting Tool – Has to be a big stick of Candy, the red and white stripped Candy Cains
Weapon Wrap – Has to be Christmas lights, no other will come close
Glider – Reindeer, Snowboard, Ski’s
Skins – I am sure we will see all the cold themed Skins come back to the Item shop, but how about those warm Christmas locations as well?

Setting up keybinds / keyboard controls in Fortnite is a bit of a personal preference thing. No one layout is going to work for everyone, it was only until recently I used the arrow keys for movement but now converted to the WASD format for control.
It was a little awkward getting used to this but I am glade I spent the time converting my play style over to this. I highly recommend switching if you’re using the keyboard arrow keys and surrounding controls as WASD pretty much PC gaming standard and is used on most games.
If you are looking for what the Pros uses check out my The best Fortnite Keybinds for more ideas on layouts
If you are new to Fortnite I would recommend staying with the default keyboard controls/key binds for a while until you become accustom to the game and you have found your play style, this will determine what controls you are going to use most. Don’t be shy to change a key bind as a test, you can always change it back if you don’t like it.

What does WASD mean in games?
WASD are a group of keyboard controls on the standard UK, US Keyboard (maybe more) They are on the top 2 letter rows on the left side of the keyboard. Most gamers use WASD over the arrow keys (on the right side) as there are more available keys in a closer range then the right side of the keyboard.
There are a not many ways to get FREE V-Bucks and there are a LOT of ways to get scammed into thinking you’re getting Free V-bucks but actually all your doing is watching endless YouTube videos of creators promising codes that they never give out. Here are some ways to really get FREE V-Bucks or at least very cheep V-Bucks!
All you need to do to get 100% totally FREE V-Bucks is to play Fortnite, level up and earn Battle Stars. You normally get around 5 Battle Stars per Battle Royal game you play. Then you can use the Battle Stars to Purchase V-Bucks from the In-game Store under the Battle Pass section.
For this there is NO need to buy the Battle Pass, down the left-hand side of the main list of Battle Pass items, there are items that you can purchase with Battle Stars, these items are things like replacement Pick Axe, Sound Tracks, Wall Sprays and of course V-Bucks. All totally FREE with no real currency spent, just stars
Each Season you can earn around 300 Totally FREE V-Bucks.
How to find FREE V-Bucks inside the Battle Pass
This is how you find some FREE V-Bucks even if you didn’t buy the Battle Pass
Navigate to the Battle Pass on the main menu
Click Battle Pass Rewards
Check on each Page, on the left column for Items that you can buy with Battle Stars
Some of the Items are 100 V-Bucks a time
Free Fortnite V-Bucks
We can see here that on page 1, I purchased a Wallpaper and some back bling, but I didn’t like the music that would have cost 5 Stars. Then as I levelled up and more pages opened up, I could buy FREE V-Bucks on pages 3, 6 and 9. I got 300 V-Bucks in total, completely FREE.
Free V-Bucks with the “Save the World” Access
These are not entirely FREE V-Bucks but are amazing value for money, so hear me out. Every now and then, the “Save the world” expansion for Fortnite is on sale in the item shop as a bundle at a pretty good discount. This is a Player v Environment add-on for Fortnite and can be purchased for a low 1 off fee, no more money to spend, this is a 1-time purchase. Look out for the “Include Save the World Access!” under the Special Offers and Bundles section of the Item shop.
Currently, In Chapter 3 Season 4, you can get the Crossmark Operative Pack and comes with:
Access to Save the World for £2.01
Daily Challenges where you can earn up to 1500 V-Bucks and other goodies Calculated at £10.98
Toni Skin, Back Bling and Pickaxe (FREE)
The Daily Challenges to get your V-Bucks do requires you to login and grind some tasks within Save the World, but they are not too hard or time consuming.
This all for £12.99! If you buy 1000 V-Bucks directly its £6.49
Crossmark Operative Pack
Free V-Bucks with “Fortnite Crew” Pack
Again, these are not entirely FREE V-Bucks but are amazing value for money, or are they, lets break it down with a closer look.
Items from the Fortnite Crew Subscription are exclusive to Fortnite Crew members and cannot be purchased separately
In the Fortnite Crew Pack, for £9.99 a month, you get:
The Battle Pass, worth 950 V-Bucks or around £6.17, lasts for the whole season
Crew Pack Skins and some items, a new set of skins each month, depending when you started the subscription
1000 V-Bucks Monthly, depending when you started the subscription
Let’s calculate this over an average Season of approx. 3 months (Start Crew pack and Battle pass at same time in new season) and see how it works out if we purchased the Battle Pass (linked to the season) and some V-Bucks or the Fortnite Crew Pack (tends to be released on the 1st of every month).
Fortnite Crew Pass for 3 months = £29.97
Get 1000 V-Bucks into your account each month (3000 Total)
Battle Pass worth 950 V-Bucks or around £6.17 meaning Crew Pass element costs £23.80 really.
3 Lots of New Exclusive Crew Only Skins
Battle Pass for the Season = 950 V-Bucks
Buy 5000 V-Bucks at £25.99
Spend 950 V-Bucks on Battle Pass
Leaves you 4050 V-Buck to Spend on the Skins you want.
If you really really want those Fortnite exclusive skins that only come with the Crew Pass then go with the Crew Pass, your basicaly paying for those skins with this pass.
If not then just stick with the Battle Pass and buy the skins you want from the item shop when they are on offer.

How to Get a V-Buck Refund
This only works if you have purchased items in the past 30 days, and you ONLY get 3 Refund request per year, so use wisely. What you need to do is submit a “Return Request” and look for items that are eligible for a refund, not all items are. If you have a purchase that you don’t want anymore, submit the refund request and they may send your V-Bucks back to you.
