Winter Wonderland in Overwatch 2 brings holiday cheer!
It is the time of year when snow falls from the sky and the houses shine colorfully in a white winter world. In the Overwatch 2 queue, you're sipping a hot drink because Winter Wonderland is back and you're playing Tank.
The developers bring you lots of winter joy as well as collectibles for your Christmas haul. So read on to find out what awaits you so that you can start this holiday season well-informed.
Login rewards under the tree
This event is already in full swing, because you won't hesitate for long when it comes to these great gifts. A snowflake icon glitters bright and clear, and a festive hat brings you into the New Year. And what is that? What is glittering here? A favorite Darumari souvenir! These treasures will make your heart beat faster when the developers give them to you for FREE when you log in to Overwatch 2.
6v6: The more the better!
If you're looking for a challenge, don't despair, because the time has come. Come together everyone, have fun and be happy with 6v6 in beautiful King's Row. It's not just stormy outside, because two tanks in the team is a real coup. Many people are familiar with the 2-2-2 format, but with our new heroes comes a new twist. Our Patch notes bring changes to the game balance so that everyone has a fair chance. The experiment will be over on January 6th, so grab your friends and jump in.
Play your favorite winter brawls
When you start a game with your friends, be sure that something nice awaits you. Your winter favorites await you in the arcade, which will give you a feeling of exhilaration every time.
At the top of the list is Mei's snowball fight, watched over by your favorite climatologist. Whether it's an FFA deathmatch or 5v5 elimination, the snow isn't just for decoration here. And as a Yeti you can wreak havoc in a 5v1 brawl, will you succeed? That's right, Mei's Yeti Hunt is back, so jump into the game and try your luck.
And don't worry, the party is far from over, because the frost-dew elimination is also going haywire. This is the Overwatch version of a freeze hunt, where you don't get too discouraged about eliminations. Your friends can thaw you out and you can trust yourself back into battle. No matter which of these winter brawls you start, you can be sure that a lot of fun awaits you!
New challenges for new gifts/strong>
Whether arcade, quick search or leaderboard, there are new rewards for the snow slopes. Casual Winter for Hanzo awaits you with excitement as you overcome the challenges of the winter wonderland. New sprays and name cards bring winter joy, but there's even more great loot. While Winter Wonderland used to release there was always a brand new skin to earn, but as of December 19th that's over as this time there are three!
Three new challenges fall into the fireplace, each rewarded with a legendary skin. Just three festive games, that's the bet, and Echo awaits you as a happy puppet. After six games something comes out of the woods: a highlight intro and legendary skin for Cassidy, what more? Once a total of nine games have been played, Widowmaker has also pulled itself together with a legendary skin and highlight intro. And don't forget: one win counts for two! So conjure up the winter trio quickly!
Premium packages for your wish list
Last but not least, like a freshly baked cookie, the premium skin for Mercy is a real sweetheart. Bag Merry and Festive for Mercy in the shop and you can be the star at your Christmas party. There are still many winter dreams on offer, so there is something for everyone under the tree for the festival.
Festive Twitch Drops
As if the festival wasn't already perfect, the developers have another surprise in store. Twitch drops are coming in on December 24th, so don't leave our streamers alone! Watch them for up to 15 hours and have sprays, player icons and name cards in no time. Also three festive skins isn't that nice? So link your Twitch to Battle.net. Don't wait too long to win, because the drops will melt away on January 5th.
The Overwatch 2 x Avatar: The Last Airbender collaboration is also waiting for you!
