It's time for some more Lúcioball,Watch Jukkalan Online Overwatchfans.
Blizzard's now-annual Summer Games event returns on Tuesday, Aug. 8 with a host of updates following its 2016 debut. The three-week event -- which ends on Aug. 29 -- introduces a new map for its signature mode and a batch of new cosmetic items for your heroes.
SEE ALSO: Blizzard lays out concrete plans to cut down on abuse in 'Overwatch'Lúcioball is an Overwatchtake on soccer, by way of Rocket League. Teams of three Lúcios apiece skate around a specially designed arena, using weapons fire and Lúcio's "boop" to knock an oversized ball into the other team's goal.
The 2017 edition of Lúcioball adds a new map -- set in Sydney -- to join 2016's Rio map (the Summer Games event was originally pegged to the 2016 Olympics). All matches will cycle back and forth between the two maps.

Blizzard also tweaked a few of the Lúcioball rules. You'll no longer be able to "boop" other players -- only the ball. Further, instead of pulling the ball in close to you, Lúcio's ultimate ability now increases both your movement speed and "boop" speed.
Lastly, for those that take competition extra-seriously: you'll now have the option of taking on other players in a ranked playlist.
That's just Lúcioball, however. The biggest dangling carrots in Overwatchare cosmetic items like character skins, sprays, and emotes, and limited-time events all come with their own selection.
The new swag doesn't replace last year's offering, however. All the same stuff is there, it's just joined by new gear. Even better: if you're still hoping to pick up the 2016 swag, it's all cheaper than the new stuff.
Here's how the pricing breaks down, per Blizzard:
New 2017 Summer Games Cosmetic Items will cost the following:
Legendary Skins will cost 3,000 credits
Epic Skins will cost 750 credits
Rare tier will cost 225 credits
Common tier will cost 75 credits
Previous Summer Games cosmetics will be available at a reduced cost:
Legendary Skins will cost 1,000 credits
Epic Skins will cost 250 credits
Rare tier will cost 75 credits
Common tier will cost 25 credits
Sadly, we don't yet know what any of the skins look like. Though in the developer update above, game director Jeff Kaplan hypes good ones for Junkrat, Mercy, McCree, and Widowmaker. We'll surely start getting peeks as that Aug. 8 launch approaches.
