Reliable leaks in the Fortnite community are stirring up excitement as they hint that Mariah Carey, often dubbed the Christmas queen, might be making her debut as a character skin in the game’s highly anticipated Winterfest event. Players could soon see her iconic red velvet and white fur-trimmed bodysuit from the classic “All I Want For Christmas Is You” music video come to life in the virtual world. According to well-known Fortnite leaker iFireMonkey, it seems Snoop Dogg and Shaq are also joining the festive fun, each donning their own unique Santa-inspired outfits.
The prospect of Mariah Carey joining Fortnite is particularly thrilling, as her holiday anthem is synonymous with the season. Rumor has it that players can expect a fun twist: Mariah might make her entrance by emerging from a block of ice on the map. This playful nod references a popular joke shared in one of her YouTube videos, where she’s humorously trapped in ice until the festive season begins.
There’s no official word yet on whether Mariah will treat us to her famous whistle register by declaring “it’s time” when she breaks free. We can only keep our fingers crossed for such a delightful surprise.
