Chinese New Year takes place later this month, so to celebrate Blizzard are bringing an all new themed event to Overwatch.

Year of the Rooster, as the event is known, was unveiled by the game’s official Twitter account and kicks off on 24 January, four days before the actual Chinese New Year (in case you were wondering).
The message didn’t reveal any details about what the event will include, but we did get a look at a new themed skin for Mei, and the game’s official Korean account suggests D.Va will also be getting a new set of threads to celebrate the special event.

Year of the Rooster will be the fourth timed event featured in Overwatch since the game’s launch last year; Lucio Ball, Halloween Terror and Winter Wonderland being the previous three, all of which featured special game modes and content.

What do you think the Year of the Rooster’s game mode will be? Share your thoughts in the comments or over in the forums.
