Overwatch 2 Winter Wonderland: Start date & key details revealed
The festive Winter Wonderland annual event returns to Overwatch 2, offering plenty of new exclusive cosmetics for weapons and skins, alongside a new secondary battle pass.
With Season 8 of Overwatch 2 now well underway, Winter Wonderland is certainly one of the most notable highlights, bringing about some glad tidings to the first-person shooter for the holiday period.
