Overwatch 2 has had a series of events that gave fans skins and game modes, and it seems Blizzard doesn’t feel like stopping anytime soon. The Lunar New Year event 2023 is here, and there are some enticing skins to add to your collection. Prepare your wallets and your collective minds; the new Echo and Mei skins have landed.
The “Year of the Rabbit” event ends in 14 days and there are a series of challenges to get through. Players can get title cards, skins, and sprays to add to their characters, and there’s only a short time to do it.
Game modes like Bounty Hunter, Capture the Flag, and Capture the Flag Blitz are here to celebrate the Lunar New Year 2023, packaged alongside the new challenges and skin in this free event. Overwatch 2’s Lunar New Year 2023 celebrations started on Jan. 17 and will be running for 14 days, until Jan. 31.
To get all these new cosmetics, you’ll have to work for them. Get ready to do some heavy lifting, as you’ll need to complete the list of challenges waiting for you.
