Blizzard has announced their Winter Wonderland 2017 event. The event returns on December 12 on consoles and PC. The event will bring back the fan-favorite mode Mei’s Snowball Offensive. In addition to Mei’s Snowball Offensive, a new seasonal event will be added. Mei’s Yeti Hunt will pit a team of 6 players consisting only of Mei against 1 Winston. The player-controlled Winston will have to evade the team of 6 while gathering power-ups and then going on the offensive. This mode sounds similar to the likes of Evolve or Friday the 13th.
During the developer update, Jeff Kaplan of the Overwatch team also mentioned that the festive makeovers of maps from previous events will return. The Black Forest will receive a similar festive makeover for this year’s event. During the developer update, Kaplan teased new skins including a long-awaited Hanzo skin.
