    Overwatch 2 Lunar New Year Event Disappoints Fans, Here’s Why

    Many Overwatch 2 players are expressing their dissatisfaction because they believe the game’s most recent Lunar New Year event isn’t up to par with past years’ celebrations.

    Some 2023 Lunar New Year participants are calling the event a sham at the start date of January 24th. Overwatch 2 gamers have regarded the Year of the Rabbit celebrations to be somewhat disappointing compared to previous Lunar New Year celebrations for a number of reasons.

    The current Year of the Rabbit event didn’t deliver, fans say

    Players of the original Overwatch game looked forward to the Lunar New Year because it marked the introduction of a slew of seasonal cosmetics and time-limited game modes. The very first event took place in Overwatch 1 and will shortly begin in Overwatch 2 to celebrate the Year of the Rabbit. However, many express their displeasure with the current course of the celebration.

    All of these complaints are only the most recent in a long series of problems that players have had with Overwatch 2, which has been a source of frustration for them ever since October 2022. Season 3 will be a tough test for the game.

    Here is a summary of details and the event duration of the Overwatch 2 Lunar New Year event.

    Redditor shares his sentiment over past year’s events

    A Reddit user by the name of Strife_3e made an infographic contrasting prior Lunar New Year celebrations with the one scheduled for 2023. The ‘Weekly Challenges’ portion of the event, which many players enjoyed more than any other element of the celebrations, is notably stingy in terms of handing out hero skins, as evidenced by a comparison with previous events.

    Despite Blizzard’s assurances of improved dialogue in Overwatch 2, the free-to-play model appears to have resulted in a greater focus on in-game purchases.

    Event skin bundles cost $15 or more, and the Weekly Rewards system now gives players weapon charms and souvenirs, which are less desirable cosmetic options than hero event skins. The weekly reward skins for the Overwatch 2 Lunar New Year event were rehashed from prior events. Overwatch 2 is free to play, but many gamers find the microtransactions too much.

    On a side note, Steam is currently having its own Chinese New Year sale that might help loosen up your frustrations over this event.
