How to unlock the Yeti Catcher achievement in Overwatch 2 - Definitive Guide

Yeti Hunter is only available during the Winter Wonderland and Anniversary events

To unlock Yeti Catcher, go to the Yeti Hunter gamemode in the arcade and pick "Prefer Hunter". You will get this most of time, even if you picked "Prefer Yeti".

Once you're in game as a Hunter, build us your ultimate (Yeti Trap) and place it down by a meat spawn. Now you just wait and hope the Yeti will fall into your trap.

Additional Information about the Yeti Trap
  • Each Mei can only have 1 in play at a time
  • Traps can be destroyed by the Yeti
  • They take few seconds to be triggerable after they are set
Additional Information about the Hunter
  • Cryo-Freeze only last for 2 seconds, and will regenerate all of your health.
  • It takes longer to freeze the Yeti than other people in regular gameplay

Attacking the yeti does give you ultimate meter charge but healing with cryofreeze seems to add much more to your ultimate charge meter (Probably due to the damage from the lightning gun).

A good place to put the trap is on the meat, or create a triangle of ice walls to trap the yeti in a small space and drop the trap.

Attacking and healing give you ult charge in the regular game, so that information was not included.

I agree that the meat is a good place to put a trap, but I don't know about the triangle. Sounds a bit too complicated, even for a party, and the trap takes a while to be able to trap the Yeti

No it doesn't, but that's the best place. Also the trap works a bit different from Junkrat's since the Yeti Trap has to activate after you throw it down

I think everyone on my team got the achievement, as Winston got caught in one trap, we surrounded him and froze him in place, and everyone dropped traps right under him. The moment he escaped one he got stuck in another and we just kept slowly freezing him to death in that one spot

So can you go in as a group of 6 and do this, taking turns playing as the yeti?

This was easier than I thought and I didn't have to put one down near any meat. Just use myself as bait lol

@redjarman I had a similar experience with the Yeti being constantly trapped. It's pretty funny.

@Samba I think Jeff said something to that degree in the developer update, but I'm not 100% sure.

In the latest new seasonal game mode from Overwatch, Yeti Hunter, play as one of five Mei's to hunt down the Yeti Winston (for science). Build up your ultimate ability, a Junkrat style trap, and find a meat spot to place it next to. Wait for the Yeti to get trapped and the achievement is yours. Good luck!

NOTE: This achievement can only be unlocked during the seasonal Winter Wonderland event! This will run from December 12, 2017, through January 1, 2018.
