Winter Wonderland

From 12/9 to 1/7, Winter Wonderland is back to Overwatch!

New Modes
  • Weeks 1-2: From December 9 - 22, you'll have the chance to play one of Overwatch's favorite modes - Mischief & Magic! But now, in a wintery landscape of Kings Row with winter props! Check out the mode in the Arcade or the "Game Modes" tab in the event.
  • Weeks 3-4: From December 23 - January 5, the mode gets another dollop of mischief with Mischief & Magic Wonderland - a variant of the mode that allows the props to defend themselves! Now, when you're hiding as Rogue Kiriko in prop form, you can taunt and stun the Genji Knights to gain ultimate charge and then use your ultimate and supercharged health to take them down while you scurry away! Find the mode in the Arcade or the "Game Modes" tab in the event.
Complete Challenges & Collect Cookies
  • Play both new winter modes (Mischief & Magic and Mischief & Magic Wonderland) to earn special cookies through completing challenges. In the Winter Wonderland event home page, you can then gift your holiday cookies to one of three mystical winter spirits - Tracer the Elf, Santa Torbjörn, or Junkrat Krampus. Each spirit has their own rewards to give you as a thank you for the cookies - lootboxes, Battle Pass tier skips, and awesome cosmetics!
Returning Modes
  • Weeks 1-4: From December 9 - January 5, your favorite returning winter modes are back! Mei's Snowball Offensive, Snowball Deathmatch, Yeti Hunter, and Freezethaw Elimination will be available in the Arcade and new "Game Modes" tab in the Winter Wonderland event.
