The studio tweeted the Overwatch tease you see above earlier this morning.

It was confirmed yesterday the event would kick off May 23 and run through June 12. The same day the celebrations start, the Overwatch: Game of the Year Edition will also be released digitally.

Along with the celebrations, a free play weekend will take place May 26-29. All progress will be saved in case players wish to continue with the game, and Xbox One and PS4 players will need an Xbox Live or PlayStation Plus account, respectively, to play online.

Blizzard will likely continue teasing event content leading up to the release notes. We’ll keep an eye out.
