Overwatch Lunar New Year Event Begins Next Week

<img src="http://bit.ly/2FJqIcH" typeof="foaf:Image" class="image-style-body-default" /> <p>Blizzard has revealed the next seasonal Overwatch event, a return of the Lunar New Year to ring in the Year of the Pig. Players can jump in for a host of new cosmetics and events for their favorite Overwatch characters starting on January 24.</p> <blockquote class="tw-align-center twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en" xml:lang="en">Squeal with joy!<br /><br /> Overwatch Lunar New Year returns January 24. 🏮 🐷 <a href="https://t.co/CLBXmBCrEX">pic.twitter.com/CLBXmBCrEX</a></p> — Overwatch (@PlayOverwatch) <a href="https://twitter.com/PlayOverwatch/status/1085975038606667777?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 17, 2019</a></blockquote> <p>The video posted shows Soldier 76 playing with a bolang gu, a pellet drum toy used as a noise-maker to ring in the new year. While that's probably a victory animation or just something made for the video, hopefully 2019 is the year of giving Soldier 76 toys to play with that he doesn't culturally understand but loves.</p> <p>We should be seeing details on Overwatch's Lunar New Year event, such as new costumes and animations, in the week leading up to going live.</p>
