In a surprise move announced by Blizzard earlier today, the gap between Overwatch Competitive Seasons 13 and 14 has been severely reduced once Season 13 comes to an end this December 31st, 2018 2pm PST (that’s January 1st 2019, 6am for Malaysia/ Singapore, Hong Kong).

Each ‘Season’ typically runs for between two to three months, with about a week’s break between seasons. However, this time around, you won’t have to wait too long to continue your SR climb. As reported on the Blizzard Forums, the grind resumes just two hours later.

Heads up, heroes:

Season 13 of Competitive Play ends Dec 31 @ 2PM PST (Dec 31 @ 22:00 UTC)!
