Fortnite’s Winterfest Presents: How To Get The Free ‘Woolly Warrior’ Skin Now

We’ve already gotten the free Lt. Evergreen skin from Fortnite’s big stack of gifts for its Winterfest celebration, but now it seems like we can get our second skin a little bit early. At the outset of the event we figured that we were going to have to wait until the end of the event to open the big green box in the back, but today it turns out that’s not entirely true. You can get the “Wooly Warrior” skin a bit early, though it would have required a bit of planning.

The “Wooly Warrior” skin was in fact in the big green box at the back of the stack of presents, but you don’t have to wait until the last day to open it. You can open it today so long as you only open presents from the left side of the screen, clearing the thing out and making way for the skin. My guess is that most people won’t be accessing this thing today for a pretty simple reason: there was some good stuff over on the right side of the screen, including both the Lt. Evergreen skin and the Millennium falcon glider. Only those who didn’t realize the right existed can probably get it today.

Fortnite Insider says that it doesn’t work for everyone, but the site was able to grab the skin with a new account it created for testing.

It’s a good skin, too! Maybe not quite so distinctive as Lt. Evergreen, which seemed like a sort of perfect distillation of Fortnite’s cartoony aesthetic, but it’s still a nice one. I feel like the icy accents on the shoulders and tusk set it apart a little bit, and I like that it’s a winter skin more than a holiday skin.

These two skins are, as far as I can remember, the only two free skins that Epic has ever given out. Sure, there have been a ton of giveaways, bundles and the like, but the only “free” skins I can remember were tied to outside purchases and subscriptions. I’m fairly sure that these are the only skins that the game has given out completely in-game, no strings attached.

So if you want to prioritize getting Wooly Warrior as fast as possible, make sure to open up all the presents on the left side of the room, ignoring the right side until you’ve gotten your free skin. You’ll get it by the end of things regardless, however.
