Overwatch’s “Year of the Pig” event is now available through February 18

Blizzard kicked off Overwatch‘s annual Lunar New Year event earlier today and players will be able to chase a new set of seasonal Skins, Emotes, Highlights, Player Icons, Sprays, and Voice Lines from now until February 18.

During the “Year of the Pig,” the developer will make the “Busan” map suitable for Capture the Flag and they’ve also launched a second season of the game’s Competitive Capture the Flag mode:

We’re celebrating the 2019 Lunar New Year with new seasonal items, including the legendary skins Lü Bu Reaper, Guan Yu Reinhardt, Zhuge Liang Zenyatta, Hong Gildong Tracer, Zhang Fei Torbjörn, and Huang Zhong Hanzo. Through February 18, items from previous Lunar New Year events will be available to unlock for a discounted credit price. This year, we’re also adding a festive Capture the Flag version of the Busan map, and kicking off a second season of Competitive Capture the Flag!
