Like a Reaper looking for a match-winning Death Blossom, December really snuck up on all of us. 2020 has been quite a long year and players are ready for the best and final event of the year. The Overwatch Winter Wonderland event is finally right around the corner. New skins and collectibles are on the horizon, but when can players get their hands on all the holiday-themed goodies?

While there hasn’t been an official announcement for a release date, there are certainly a few dates that would line up with the release of the event in the past. Overwatch’s 2020 Winter Wonderland event will be here in a few days.
There is the potential for a delayed release of the Winter Wonderland event. On par for 2020, Overwatch could try and push back the release and have players wait an additional week for their winter games. If that is the case, players could expect a longer window to earn Winter Wonderland loot boxes. Starting the new year with some brand new legendary skins doesn’t seem so bad after all.
Tuesday, December 8 (This was another potential option)
Following the past schedule for Overwatch releases, players can typically expect the latest event content to drop on the second Tuesday of the month. Last year the Winter Wonderland event was available on December 10, and it would make sense to see Overwatch stick to their same process. Though Blizzard has yet to mention anything about the popular holiday event, they do like to surprise their audience once in a while with a surprise announcement.
