Overwatch Winter Wonderland Week 1 challenges went live with the start of the holiday event giving fans a chance to earn the Elf Junkrat skin.

Weekly Challenges are a staple of Overwatch events. Blizzard sets a win counter each week during the event putting up three Epic skins to earn over the course of the 21 days. The first week of challenges revolves around Elf Junkrat. The popular character has been decked out in red and green and given an elf hat. He has that Christmas feel and should be a popular skin among players.
