Today marked the start of the Year of the Rabbit event in Overwatch 2, which introduces new limited-time arcade modes and festive maps to celebrate the Lunar New Year. A new set of event challenges are available with themed rewards up for grabs, including a new legendary skin for Echo.
The Year of the Rabbit event kicked off today and will continue until January 31, 2023. As part of the Lunar New Year festivities, three arcade brawls are available for a limited time: Capture the Flag, Capture the Flag Blitz, and Bounty Hunter. Alongside the event comes a new set of event challenges that reward players with new cosmetic items, including the Kkachi Echi Legendary Skin. Players who log in to Overwatch 2 from now until January 31 to get a free Year of the Rabbit player icon as well.
The Year of the Rabbit event also ushers in the return of Twitch drops for those looking to obtain a new victory pose and legendary skin for Moira. Players with a linked Battle.net account who spend two hours watching Twitch streams with drops enabled will earn the Lion Roars Victory Pose, while watching for another four hours will net you the Masked Dancer Legendary Skin.
