Even though it wasn't announced when the holiday event kicked off recently, Blizzard is giving people an extra incentive to play Overwatch on Christmas (my wife and I have been playing a bit!). Just yesterday the playerbase was met with a special Christmas message after logging in noting how great of a year it was thanks to fan support, alongside of five holiday loot boxes.
There doesn't seem to be an expiration date for this, but the Winter Wonderland event does expire January 2, so you may as well log in and collect your boxes.
