The studio had been hinting for days that the community would have news related to the OG era and winter, but the confirmation has gone even further.

Assault rifle with scope

Epic has also confirmed the return of the X-4 Stormwing, the planes that revolutionized mobility several seasons ago. Even the Infinity Blade will return later in the season, this time with adjustments to avoid imbalances.
In terms of visuals, the pass includes three renovated skins: an updated version of the classic Santa Claus, a redesigned warrior in pajamas, and a new variant of Lynx. All set against a snowy backdrop that recovers mythical areas like Polar Peak, Happy Hamlet, and Frosty Flights.
Additionally, those who achieve a victory during the season will be able to unlock a new exclusive umbrella, available for free. A trip back in time with a Christmas twist that promises to become one of the most special moments for the community in this final stretch of 2025.
