The update brings with it a brace of new winter themed maps, Hanamura and Black Forest receive the treatment, joining King’s Row and Ecopoint: Antartica. There is a new Brawl event, Yeti Hunter which is set on the Nepal map. This is in addition to last year’s Snowball Offensive which is also getting brought back into the rotation for the duration of this event.
The trailer also shows us a couple of new cosmetic skins coming for Hanzo, Ana, Soldier 76, Roadhog, Bastion, and Sombra. The event and all associated brawls will be running from today until the 1 January 2018.
