Leaked Overwatch Trailer Shows New Skins, Hints At New Mode For Chinese New Year Event
After a tease last week for a Chinese New Year event, many Overwatch fans are curious for what's in store. The Year of the Rooster event goes live tomorrow, but a leaked trailer that surfaced on Reddit, provides an early glimpse at some of the skins and hints at a new mode.
With most events, a bevy of new skins become available alongside other extra goodies for characters, from highlight intros to voice lines. The leaked trailer, which you can view here, shows new skins for Tracer, Symmetra, and Mercy. People are speculating based on the video that a "Capture The Flag" mode of some sort exists based on Tracer pictured with a flag saying, "The objective is mine!" Time will tell if this is true and part of a brawl or new map entirely.
Game Informer will be posting information and video of the event once we know more and it goes live.
