But the changes weren't all positive, as some fans noticed a strange bug involving Mei. Recent reports suggest Mei's waist looks thinner after the update.
According to Blizzard, this is unintentional, and the studio is working on an update to fix it.
"There's a bug with Mei's Luna and Chang'e skins right now that's causing her waist to appear much smaller than normal," reads a Blizzard blog post.
"We've already fixed the bug internally, but it's going to require a patch to implement (ideally it'll be included in whatever next patch hits your gaming platform).
"Thanks for the quick reports, btw. And happy Lunar New Year!"
Players can expect an update to fix the issue soon.
The Year of the Rooster event runs until February 13, and is available for PS4, Xbox One and PC.
Capture the Rooster sees teams face off on Lijiang Tower, where players attempt to secure the enemy flag.
"In this fast-paced brawl, players will need to get creative with their team compositions as they attempt to construct a lineup that’s built for offensive speed and defensive stability," reads a Blizzard post.
Lucky Lunar Loot Boxes replace the normal kind, and are packed with new skins like Palanquin D.Va and Wukong Winston.
