As a dedicated Fortnite enthusiast who's followed every major event, I can confirm the Crescent Shroom Pickaxe is the final Winterfest giveaway. What started as a glitch in the Cozy Lodge gift counter turned into a generous apology from Epic Games—a brand-new pickaxe available free to players who logged in during Winterfest (others can buy it in the Item Shop).
Here's your complete guide to the Crescent Shroom Pickaxe, including how to get it, its potential cost, and visuals from reliable data miners.
Epic is compensating for Winterfest downtime by granting the Crescent Shroom Pickaxe on January 7 at 7 PM ET. Simply log in during Fortnite Winterfest to claim it—no other requirements.
Missed the event? It'll appear in the Item Shop soon. While Epic hasn't confirmed the price, based on similar cosmetics, expect 800-1200 V-Bucks.
Bonus: Epic's Power Leveling Weekend runs from January 7 until January 10 at 7 a.m. ET, boosting your Chapter 3 Season 1 Battle Pass progress.
Epic hasn't released an official image yet, but trusted data miner @FortniteBR has leaked a preview. The pickaxe features a striking crescent moon and mushroom design—perfect for harvesting with style.
