How to unlock the Winter Has Come achievement in Weird West: Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide

Achievement is missable - you must have spared the souls of the Pigmen at the end of Chapter 2

Update: Since there have been some issues with this achievement and people not finding the snow globes, I'm going to suggest the easiest and guaranteed way to get them based on how I got it. There are some that have gotten then achievement by going to Joe's hut during chapter 5, but I don't know if they visited the location previously or not.

Solution:
Snow globes can be found in Pigman Joe’s hut during chapters 3, 4, and 5. I collected one each chapter, then placed on my horse so I didn’t lose place of them or sell them (be careful, you can sell them to the general store by accident)

Once you are in chapter 5, make sure you have the first two in your inventory and head to Joe’s hut to find the last one. With all three in hand, the achievement is yours.

Sorry the screenshots don't appear, I had to put them on my dropbox since TA won't import them for some reason.

I'm starting to think that the best way to do this is to wait all the way til chapter 5 and grab all three at once. I am struggling to keep this globe in my inventory ever since I picked up the first one in chapter 3. I haven't even changed chapters yet, and all I've done is kept it on my horse, and it keeps disappearing. When it happened the first time, I became extremely paranoid about checking my horse after every action, and at one point, when it disappeared, even loading the previous save didn't work. It was gone from that save too even though I know I had it in that save at the time. So I went back to the save before that, and it was even gone from that one too. And the one before that. The game just yanked it out of existence, even in older saves where I know it was there.

I tried going back to Pigman Joe's place to see if it had warped back there somehow, but it wasn't there either. I thought for sure it was gone forever, but going back about 5 or 6 saves it finally showed up again, though I lost hours of progress. One thing I think might have caused it is interacting with Pigman Joe in Grackle at some point because it seemed to have happened right after that. But I don't know why it would make the globe disappear from even multiple sequential saves prior to that.

So now I'm even more paranoid with the globe back, because now I'm going to have to babysit this thing and then the next globe, all the way until chapter 5. I wish I could somehow just put it back, because more people seemed to have had success by just waiting til the very end and picking up all three globes at once.

Can you tell me the exact location of the snow globe? I can't find in Joe's hut.

Did you save the pigs souls at the end of chapter 2 (not destroy them)? The hut is pretty small, they’re sitting on the table along the inside edge.

playing werewolf now(of course, I saved the soul of the pig) and loaded pigman file before final select. I went to Joe's hut as a protector, but I haven't found it. I guess I'm not good at find something

@Selju I loaded up the game and took a screenshot. I will post in the solution once TA allows me access to them.

I had to replay and get them on 3 4 and 5, i think if you only go there on 5 they don't spawn unless you previous visited location on 3 and 4

I went ahead and reverted the solution back to the original way since there seems to be issues with just getting them in 5. Sorry for any confusion.

You can still collect them all in Ch 5 ,I did not collect them in 3 & 4 .I did not visit Pigman Joe after ch 2 , I did not kill the pigs and I did have him as a friend for life.

I got the first globe in Ch 3, put it on my horse, and in Ch 4 it was missing. Got the second globe in Ch 4, put that on my horse, and in Ch 5 it was missing as well. Possible bug. So I would suggest either keeping them on your person, or getting all 3 in Ch 5.

Whilst the achievement itself isn’t bugged, the way you go about it is. Whilst you’re doing missions in stages 3 and 4, keep them in your inventory, only put them in your bank vault before you complete each stage and then go pick them up at the start of the next. Had them go missing part way through stage 4, luckily I spread my saved about and didn’t have to backtrack far.

I did this in chapter 5 before last mission. I just went to Joe's Hideaway. (It is right side of Cedar Flat town.) the three globes were there.(Grackle Snowglobe, Sheoherd's Dale Snowglobe, Thriving Place Snowglobe)
They were waiting for me. After the first visit here when I played pigman, I had never come here. Because of this I didn't take any of them before chapter 5. 😅

People should definitely wait until Chapter 5 and collect all of them at once. They are extremely bugged to disappear from your inventory (whether on your person, your horse, or in a bank) and if you pick them up chapter by chapter, you are going to have to replay all the way from end of 2/start of 3 through chapter 5 again to have another chance to get all 3.

Would be nice if the devs fixed this so it just registers the progress as you pick each one up, not needing you to have all 3 at the same time. Or, y'know, make it so they don't fucking vanish in the first place.

Awwww man. I know this isn't particularly your fault cause it's bugged. But if I hadn't followed this guide and not put the items on my horse I would not have to replay three chapters...

I added two screenshots I uploaded to my Dropbox. TA won’t add them to my captured for some reason.

To my knowledge, the only requirement is to not kill the pigs off at the end of Ch2 and making sure Joe doesnt die. It’s possible recruiting him could prevent the snow globes from appearing, but I haven’t heard anything like that.

I just finished the game.. I had the chapter 3 & 4 snowglobes in my bank safe deposit box just before finishing chapter 4 and then in chapter 5, I immediately retrieved my horse, went to joe's hideout, picked up the last snowglobe and rode to nearest bank and the 2 snowglobes in the bank had disappeared.. I checked every bank in the game, reloaded saves etc but the chapter 3 & 4 snowglobes just vanished in to thin from the banks deposit box.. only items in the game during the whole playthrough that disappeared like that..

As of August 12, 2023, the achievement is still partially bugged and highly missable.

You need to free the souls at the end of chapter 2 and keep Pigman Joe alive until chapter 5 to have a chance to unlock the achievement.

Snowglobes appear in Joe's hideout one at a time during chapters 3, 4, and 5.

In chapter 3, there's a random encounter where Joe is involved in a duel with another Pigman. I recommend helping Joe, as he could die here.

Now, regarding the partially bugged aspect, after conducting several tests, I can confirm that if you place the snowglobes into your saddlebags or the bank, the snowglobes disappear upon loading a saved game (both hard save and quick save).

The snowglobes are no longer tagged as junk. You can obtain and retain them in your inventory without the fear of accidentally selling them.

Alternatively, you could simply wait until chapter 5 to acquire all three snowglobes at once.

Missable. You need to free the Pigmen Souls at the end of Chapter 2.

You'll find all three Snow Globes in Pigman Joe's Hideaway. They appear one at a time in Chapters 3, 4 and 5. However you can simply travel to Joe's Hideaway in Chapter 5 as the Oneirist and collect all three at once. If you have collected a globe in earlier chapters please be aware that they are classed as "Junk" and can be sold to the shops. So I suggest keeping them safe on your horse until chapter 5.

All three globes need to be in your inventory for the achievement to pop.
