The Winterfest event for this year has been leaked in today's v19.01 update. Here's everything you need to know.
Running from December 16 until January 6, this year's Winterfest event is set to be similar to 2019's, which also featured presents, free outfits and a Cabin. A new addition for Winterfest this year is the Sgt. Winter NPC that will be driving around the map in a special Christmas truck, delivering gifts to residents of the Island.
The leaked Winterfest loading screen (above) also shows the X-4 Stormwing planes in the sky, suggesting that they could be unvaulted temporarily like last year.
The Winterfest celebrations will give players a present containing a new cosmetic everyday, with a total of 14 to obtain.
Most of the cosmetics are encrypted, however, the codenames have been found:
