A massive ice block, concealing a holiday surprise, has appeared on the Fortnite Chapter 6 map! Inside resides the legendary Mariah Carey, but finding her frozen form requires a bit of exploration. Here's how to locate this icy icon before she melts away.

How to Find Mariah Carey in Fortnite Chapter 6

The recent Fortnite Winterfest update has brought a blizzard to the Battle Royale island. A significant portion of the map is snow-covered, and nestled within this frosty landscape is a colossal ice chunk. You'll find it southwest of Brutal Boxcars, perched atop a mountain that's difficult to miss. While the lack of loot makes it an unconventional starting location, brave players who land there first will uncover a couple of chests.

Data miners confirm that the ice block contains the iconic Mariah Carey, slowly thawing. This hints at a major in-game event in the coming weeks.

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 with Juice WRLD. Now, early in Chapter 6, Fortnite continues this trend with Mariah Carey's anticipated performance of her classic holiday tunes within the Battle Royale.

A mini-event is planned for Winterfest, though the exact date remains undisclosed. However, it's likely to occur before December 25th, given the Christmas theme of Carey's most famous 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 Carey skin and emote to spread festive cheer across the map. Who could resist a little holiday cheer, even from an opponent?
