Disguises you as a snowman to hide from enemies.
— In-Game Description

The Sneaky Snowman is a Consumable Item in Fortnite: Battle Royale that was introduced in Season 7.

Functionality[]

The Sneaky Snowman is thrown at a location to produce a snowman. This snowman can be interacted with in a few ways. The player can enter the snowman, being able to move, sprint, build and jump whilst wearing it. It can be exited by holding the interact button, which will cause the player to jump out (and can negate fall damage this way).

When a Sneaky Snowman is destroyed, a snowball will appear. It can be picked up and thrown or shot at to deal explosive damage in a small radius and apply the Icy Feet effect.
