What’s New in Overwatch’s Year of the Dog Event? Everything You Need to Know
Overwatch’s Year of the Dog event doesn’t just add the aforementioned CTF-oriented map for players. You’ll also get to run around a festively-decorated version of the Lijiang Tower map. It’s not much, but it’s enough to get you in the festivities as you unload your ult on some unsuspecting fool.
As for the new map, Ayutthaya is based in Thailand and has been built from the ground-up specifically for Capture the Flag. In the developer update video for the event, Jeff Kaplan provided a quick description of what fans can expect from it.
“One side of the map is ancient and shows some temple that’s very gorgeous. And the other side is very bright and beautiful and very modern, and we think you’ll enjoy it.” Not a lot to go on in terms of how it might impact gameplay, but it’ll certainly make for a more exciting CTF experience than the standard ones.
