Overwatch Teases Upcoming Chinese New Year Event, Starting Next Week

January 19, 2017 by Jordan Biazzo

Who would you want to see get a new skin?

The official Overwatch Twitter account might have hinted that the next event for the game will be centered around Chinese New Year.

As Winter Wonderlands wrapped up a couple weeks ago, it seems fitting that Overwatch’s next event should be arriving any minute; and since it seems like the Valentine’s Day event isn’t true, fans should expect a Chinese New Year centered event.

Check out the teaser tweet down below where the proof is in the pudding:

As you can see, the event seems to start on January 24, four days prior to when the actual Chinese New Years take place. Plus we also got a sneak peek at the new outfit Mei will be getting thanks to the new event.

And thanks to the Korean Overwatch Twitter account, we also got a look at D.Va’s. Check it out down below:
