It is possible for the patch to get delayed due to server stress, so don't get uneasy if the update doesn't instantly appear. The WInter Wonderland event starts on December 2 and will most likely hit live servers around 1 to 2 p.m. Here's a full rundown of everything you need to know to get ready for the event Winter Wonderland Overwatch Release Time We will update this story with whichever (or both) game modes come back for 2019. Meis start out with the most power but slowly become weaker as the Yeti picks up meals and powers up. Five players deck out in their best Mei skins and go off to slay the mighty beast, who only wants to chill and eat meat. There's also Yeti Hunter, which is a five-versus-one match where you need to take down a Yeti Winston. Eliminating other players with your tiny projectiles grants you kills, and the player with the most defeated enemies at the end of the round wins. There's Mei Snowball Offensive, which turns eveny player into Mei weilding a snowball launcher. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to get to work on unlocking this amazing Zenyatta Nutcracker skin.Like every event, there will be a special game mode that players can mess around in. Each Loot Box contains randomized items, but Winter Loot Boxes guarantee at least one winter event item in each box. They can be unlocked through Winter Loot Boxes, which are earned in the same manner as regular Loot Boxes: either by leveling up in-game, or purchasing them with real money.
