During the holiday period, Fortnite has launched the Winterfest event, during which every player can receive free skins and rewards. Players have the opportunity to open 14 gifts in total, which means 14 different free rewards that will enhance your collection. One of the most coveted Christmas gifts in Fortnite is definitely the Santa Snoop Dogg skin, which can be obtained completely for free.

How to Get the Santa Dogg Skin in Fortnite for Free

You can obtain the Santa Dogg skin in Fortnite starting Wednesday, December 25 (Christmas Day). On this day at 9 a.m. (Eastern Time), when you enter the gift lodge, a new Christmas gift will be standing on the carpet—a small golden box with a red ribbon. By opening this package, you will receive Santa Snoop Dogg in Fortnite. This gift will not appear until December 25.

Until then, you can open other packages that grant a variety of rewards, and you can find the full list in this article: How to Get Every FREE Reward in Winterfest 2024

So, to get the Santa Dogg skin in Fortnite, you need to:

1. Wait for December 25 (Christmas Day).
   
   
2. Log in to Fortnite.
   
   
3. Click on the snowflake icon in the game menu.
   
   
4. Visit the lodge.
   
   
5. Select the gift that will be standing in the center of the lodge between the couch and the gifts on the left.
   
   
6. Periodically press Q and hold the E key to open the gift.
   
   
7. Accept and equip the Santa Dogg skin.

If for some reason, you cannot log into the game on Christmas, don't worry. You will have time until the end of Winterfest to open all the desired gifts, including the Santa Snoop Dogg skin.

The Winterfest event ends on January 7, 2025, so you will still have plenty of time. Additionally, Santa Snoop might later be available in the Fortnite store, but it will cost V-Bucks, which may not be advantageous for you.

By collecting all the free gifts, you will be able to equip the ones you liked the most on your character and enjoy the game with pleasant skins and cosmetics. If you're curious about what rewards are contained in the gifts, you can read this article.
